The Average Commute in Van

Oh, the days of commuting, when I was commuting home from school, I thought I was being dramatic about a less than an hour commute, I can’t imagine doing that same commute now, I’ll take zoom classes in pajamas any day!

A new report on transit in Canada has found that Vancouver natives have the shortest transit commute times out of Canada’s biggest cities. The findings come from Moovit, a global intel company and service solutions provider. The report entails big data analyzed from tens of millions of trip requests along with user research in 104 metropolitan areas across 28 countries.

In Canada, data was analyzed in the Toronto, Montreal, and Greater Vancouver areas.

Overall, the report said that due to COVID-19 and stay-at-home orders, 55% of Canadians are using public transit less frequently or not at all.

The report found that Torontonians endure the longest trip times for the second year in a row (52 minutes), while Vancouverites enjoy the shortest public transit commute, averaging 43 minutes.
