A recent report by data company Inrix reveals that the most severe traffic congestion in the world occurs in Los Angeles, California, USA, where drivers spend an average of 102 hours in traffic each year, resulting in an economic loss of $2,828 (approximately HKD 22,000). Following closely are Moscow, Russia, and New York City.
Inrix surveyed traffic issues in 1,360 cities worldwide, indicating that while New York does not rank first in overall congestion, a section of the Bronx River Parkway and Interstate 95 is the most congested stretch of road in the world. On this 7.5-kilometer roadway, the average driver spends 118 hours annually. Furthermore, New York City has three other stretches that are among the top ten most congested, two of which are located in Manhattan.
The report states that congestion leads to significant economic losses, with the average New York car owner losing $2,982 each year; the government's losses are even more severe, amounting to as much as $33.7 billion annually, considering fuel, time, and vehicle costs.
In fact, severe congestion reflects a place's continuous development — an increasing urban population, strong economic growth, low unemployment rates, and rising employment rates. Naturally, traffic congestion issues draw attention from various parties, prompting them to adopt measures and strategies to alleviate congestion, and it is believed that this issue will gradually improve.
As an internationally recognized commercial and cultural center, New York has a population of over 8 million, making it one of the largest and most popular cities in the United States, regarded as the financial and entertainment capital of the world. Manhattan, as the heart of the global economy, has been astonishingly transcending itself in recent years, becoming a new hotspot for global investors to invest in New York!
