Surveys taken: Monday 1 August
This survey gives snapshots of travel times in traffic conditions at two different times as given by Google’s crowdsourcing techniques*. Drop offs at disabled-friendly rear entrance to UCLH. Gower Street drop offs are about 3 mins quicker. A starting point anywhere on Judd/Hunter would give similar results.

* Google’s crowd-sourced traffic data is compiled by tracking mobile phones in vehicles. It is widely used and anecdotally, it seems to be respected by drivers who have checked its accuracy (https://goo.gl/ErTXuc).
