"The average commuter is spending more than 139 hours per year
commuting, increasing substantially for Londoners who spend the
equivalent of one whole month per year (225 hours a year) travelling to
and from work."

What are the totals for other group posters just so we can see if people
typically do have long or short trip times?


1hr 10min each way for me. Finchley Road to West Drayton (usually via
Uxbridge)
I make that 525 hours a year.

Struggling to see how the beeb figure 225 hours to be the equivalent of
one whole month?
My calculator gives 225/24 = 9.375 days. It's late, am I missing something?
