Punch in your commute. We'll tell you how many hours and how much money you lose every year, measured against real Delhi road speeds.
Built on measured road data from Google Maps Roads Management Insights, via TraffiCure. Measured area: South Delhi. Measured roads in Delhi currently cover South Delhi, roughly Hauz Khas to Kidwai Nagar and South Extension to Munirka. Routes outside that area fall back to citywide averages.

Type your home and office. We'll estimate the distance and apply Delhi's peak-hour slowdown to it.

Delay compared to free-flow (18.8 km/h). Two trips a day, 50 working weeks per year.
Four inputs, four steps. Every number below is measured, not modelled.
Distance. Google Maps returns the real driving distance between your home and office — not a straight line, not a city grid approximation.
Route-specific speed. We locate every TraffiCure-measured road segment within 300 m of your route and pull its hour-by-hour average speed. A highway commute uses highway speeds; an inner-city route uses inner-city speeds. If we don't have segments near your route yet, we fall back to Delhi's citywide average (18.8 km/h free-flow).
Rolling-hour travel time. A 20 km trip at 9 AM crosses into the 10 AM hour. We walk your route forward hour by hour, applying each hour's measured speed to the minutes you actually spend in it.
Delay. (time at your hour) − (time at free-flow). Computed separately for morning and evening because Delhi's evening rush is sharper than its morning rush.
Accuracy is roughly ±20% on the final number. What we can't see: your specific
lane choices, parking-lot exits, signal cycles, and whether you get lucky.
What we can see: how fast the roads themselves are flowing, which is the
part the city can change.
