About this drive

On weekdays the 31-mile drive from Borough Park to Paramus (via I-478 West and I-278 North) usually takes as little as 59 minutes and up to 197 minutes, when leaving around 4:30 pm on Fridays. Midday (11 am to 2 pm) it takes about 114 minutes. On weekends it is slowest around 3:30 pm on Sundays (147 minutes).

About 15 miles of it is freeway, where times follow typical and live traffic from our sensors, and about 15 miles surface streets (37 to 123 minutes on weekdays), estimated from how jammed the freeways around them are at that time. Drive times are measured from central Borough Park to central Paramus along the route on the map. Starting or ending elsewhere in a big city can add or save several minutes.

Simulated from typical freeway speeds at each point of the drive for the time you would reach it, from every 5-minute reading we have recorded. We don't have sensors on surface streets yet, so the time on them is estimated from how congested the freeways around each end of the drive are at that time, in both directions: streets jam when the freeways do.
