What we are saying about the transportation effects of COVID-19.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic.

Read what authors of the UMR are saying about the transportation effects and possible implications of this unique time in human history.

December 9, 2019 Update: While working on a similar project, researchers discovered an error in the analysis of congestion costs contained in the 2019 Urban Mobility Report. Values in the report and urban area data tables have been corrected throughout this site. These figures should be used in place of all earlier estimates.
