This graph shows the average amount of time spent travelling to work in Great Britain in 2017, by mode of transportation. The longest commuting time was on national rail trains with more than an hour long journeys, suggesting that trains are the preferred option for longer journeys for getting to work. Unsurprisingly, the shortest time was for walking with the average commuting time being 14 minutes.
