Suggest you or a moderator re-tag this question appropriately.</P><P></P><P>Having said that I have been using it to extract routes between locations in Turkey. I have no way of validating them but what I have noticed is that the travel times returned do not vary depend upon season. This suggests they have no historic data to predict travel times for those roads so it is defaulting to some average road speed.</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 14 Sep 2017 09:38:41 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/modelbuilder-questions/google-directions-api-estimated-travel-time/m-p/699398#M2348 DuncanHornby 2017-09-14T09:38:41Z
