When Will I Reach?

Every day, millions of people choose their mode of commute based on a number glowing on their phone screens: the estimated time of arrival (ETA) on a navigation app

Anyone who has navigated peak city traffic must know the reality: initial ETA is rarely the final one. To understand exactly how and why, CSE’s researcher Shubham Srivastava ran a simple experiment to track how ETAs change during rush hour.

Join me, Sukanya, in this Live Chat as I discuss with Shubham why ETA predictions break down, why navigation apps may not be completely at fault, and what these predictive failures mean for urban mobility and climate action planning.
