Uber has released datasets of road speed data for New York City, Seattle, Cincinnati, Nairobi, and London. The datasets provide the average speed of Uber vehicles on a given road segment for each hour of each day during 2018. Governments can use this data to evaluate the impact of infrastructure investments, better understand congestion, and to inform policies to make traveling more efficient.

Get the data.
