Case Study: National Highways improves journey time reliability with TomTom and AtkinsRéalis

Redefining journey time reliability for National Highways with end-to-end traffic data

AtkinsRéalis partnered with TomTom to address a challenge faced by their client, National Highways. The national road operator needed to replace a complex, road-segment-based journey time metric with one that was easier for the public to understand and that reflected how drivers actually plan their trips from start to finish.

The solution used TomTom’s Traffic Stats product, which provided the unique, comprehensive end-to-end journey data required to develop a new reliability metric based on complete trips. This data-driven solution, implemented by AtkinsRéalis, provides clearer performance insights, enables more targeted network improvements, and allows National Highways to communicate journey reliability in a more meaningful way to road users.
