This Map of the Month is published during the transport month of October, using data from the GCRO’s Quality of Life (QoL) Survey 7 (2023/24) – newly released in October 2024 – to explore the travel times that Gauteng commuters take to make their most frequent trips. QoL 7 (2023/24) data on travel times is compared to results from earlier Quality of Life Surveys, notably QoL 6 (2020/21) undertaken when travel patterns were heavily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
