Ride-hailing services like Uber and Lyft are so popular in San Francisco that they have become the single biggest factor behind the city’s increasingly snarled traffic, according to a new report.
In San Francisco, it’s clear traffic has gotten much worse over the last five or six years, as ride-hailing services have caught on., the deputy director for technology, data and analysis at the San Francisco County Transportation Authority.
“The trips are primarily happening in the most congested parts of the city at the most congested times of day,” Castiglione said. Their results suggest that the number of miles traveled on city streets and the hours spent doing so rose twice as much with ride-hailing as they would have without it. The 62% increase in the hours that vehicles spent stuck in traffic between 2010 and 2016 would have been just 22% if the city didn’t have Uber and Lyft, according to the study.
