The Travel Times feature in Metroview provides insight into approximate travel durations for bicyclists and pedestrians based on observed Strava activity. It can help you explore how far people typically travel within a given amount of time and how travel patterns vary across your community.
The bike ride category includes both regular and e-bike rides. The pedestrian activity category visualizes data from an aggregation of runs, walks and hikes.
The Travel Times feature is available from the Map page in Metroview. Once selected, the map will load with filter options on the left side of the screen.
You can choose either an Origin or Destination point:
Selecting an Origin shows how far a rider or pedestrian can typically travel from that point within the selected time range.
Selecting a Destination shows the approximate time it takes riders or pedestrians to reach that point.
Use the Max Travel Time slider to adjust the time range displayed on the map. For example, selecting 10 minutes will display the area that riders or pedestrians can typically reach within approximately 10 minutes.
You can also adjust the time period to explore how travel ranges and patterns change over time.
Once a travel time range is generated, hovering over a hexagon will display the fastest commonly observed route along with the average travel time for that route.
Travel Times results are based on aggregated activity patterns and are intended for exploratory analysis rather than precise routing or prediction.
The data shown in the Travel Times feature follows the same aggregation and privacy standards as the other tools in Strava Metro.
