Bucharest’s poor traffic conditions lead to jams

Bucharest has attained the unenviable title of being Europe’s worst city for traffic congestion during 2017. This comes from research by GPS technology provider 3972 TomTom, which revealed that the city’s traffic problems have worsened since 2015. The study put Bucharest ahead of Moscow for vehicle congestion, which is of note as Russia’s capital has previously been identified as being one of the 10 worst cities in the world for traffic jams. The TomTom study placed Moscow second for traffic jams in Europe, with St Petersburg in third place, London in fourth, Marseilles in fifth, Rome in sixth and Paris in seventh place.
