Here's how Boston fared in this year's traffic report

In something of a Pyrrhic victory for Boston drivers, the city improved its standing in a 2025 ranking of the most congested urban areas - even as the average Bostonian spent a whopping 83 hours languishing in traffic. Compared to last year, INRIX found that Boston drivers lost an additional four hours to traffic jams in 2025, costing about $1,529 per driver. Those 83 hours would be more than enough to log two full-time workweeks, or to watch the entire extended-cut "Lord of the Rings" trilogy seven times over - with minutes to spare.
