A closer look at the data behind the 2020 TomTom Traffic Index

From closed businesses to closed borders, the way we lived, worked and moved changed dramatically in 2020 – and the outlook for the year ahead remains uncertain.

What can traffic tell us about the effects of lockdowns? How will mobility evolve? What are the implications for consumer behavior, the economy and public policy?

The 2020 TomTom Traffic Index reveals global and local mobility trends from a year unlike any other. It takes an in-depth look at how urban movement has changed and provides the insights you need to answer pressing mobility questions.

Join our webinar to take a deeper dive into the data and methodology behind the TomTom Traffic Index. We’ll explore how the events of 2020 impacted traffic, what they mean for mobility moving forward and how TomTom Traffic data helps drive smarter, safer mobility decisions—for individuals, businesses and governments.
