Bengaluru, Pune among world's most congested cities: Report
India
If you've ever felt like traffic in Indian cities is endless, you're not alone—Bengaluru and Pune just ranked 2nd and 5th in the world for worst congestion, says TomTom's 2025 Traffic Index.
On average, Bengaluru drivers crawl along at just 16.6km/h and lose a whole week every year (168 hours!) stuck behind the wheel.
Other big cities—Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, and Jaipur—also made it into Asia's top 10 for traffic jams.
Why is it so bad?
The report points to multiple factors behind Bengaluru's gridlock.
With millions of vehicles on the road and infrastructure under pressure, getting around is a daily struggle for many urban Indians.
TomTom compiled the index using anonymised GPS and trip data (more than 3.65 trillion km).
