Ireland’s capital city Dublin has been ranked the third slowest city in the world to drive in according to new research.
The eye-opening study by tech company Tom Tom looked at 389 cities across 56 countries on six continents and measured their travel time, fuel costs and CO2 emissions, providing free access to city-by-city information to create the Tom Tom traffic index.
To measure this, a team of researchers at the company assessed the time per mile driven and simulated how long it takes to complete a six-mile (approximately 10-kilometre) journey within a city. Furthermore, the researchers created two lists, one looking at the city centre of each city, and another looking at the metropolitan area.
