| Abstract: | The opportunity cost of the journey to work is usually calculated by multiplying an hourly value-of-time figure by the duration of an average trip. There is a shortage of reliable up-to-date data concerning the average duration of commuter trips. This note presents a technique for estimating average durations using urban density functions and a traffic speed model. The method is tested for London. |
