Traffic Congestion

This ranking compares how strongly traffic congestion affects everyday mobility in a country. The raw value is congestion points from 0 to 100: lower values mean smoother traffic, while higher values mean frequent delays in important urban areas. Lower raw values receive a higher rating.

How the Raw Value Is Calculated

The raw value is Nomadino congestion points from 0 to 100. 0 means very low congestion impact, while 100 means very strong and regular delays. Lower is better.

Direct annual hours lost are robustly available only for selected cities and countries. Nomadino therefore uses a harmonised country value that combines public city-traffic comparisons, congestion indices, urbanisation, road-network context and maintained territory values.

The main public plausibility anchor is the INRIX Global Traffic Scorecard. It measures real delays in many cities and shows where major urban traffic areas are especially congested.

For countries and territories without direct city coverage, replacement values are derived from administrative links, regional comparators, island context, urban structure, road density and available mobility indicators.

The rating is derived directly from the raw value: rating = 100 minus congestion points. A lower raw value therefore improves the ranking.
