One side effect of the coronavirus crisis and the consequent stay-at-home orders, is the dramatic reduction in traffic in cities all around the world. This would be good news if we actually had someplace to go, but as it is, the few times we do leave the house are for quick runs to the grocery store, the post office, or to pick up food.
This map, with data compiled by TomTom for its Traffic Index and shared on Reddit by user DanClark93, shows just how drastically traffic has declined in major cities across the world. It compares traffic from March 2019 to traffic in the same month of 2020, charting the volume at each hour of the day.
