’It’s not going to happen overnight’ — TomTom expert explains how we can fix congestion

Ralf-Peter Schäfer, TomTom VP of Product Management Traffic and Travel Information, has studied traffic, congestion and its impact on transit for decades. Over this time, much has changed in the world, but one thing has remained constant: the challenge of traffic and congestion.

Ralf-Peter explain how we can tackle congestion

Solving traffic and congestion isn’t simple. The first step, as Ralf-Peter explains, is to understand the situation right now, the status quo. With this understanding we can begin to make changes, big or small, to our road network and observe their impact.

Change by change, cities can tackle congestion and improve quality of life for their citizens.
