Benefits

• Time, cost, and CO2 emissions savings.
  routeRANK provides the information you need to optimize your trip according to what is important to you.
• Greener travel
  routeRANK allows you to explicitly consider the environmental footprint of your trip, and to offset your CO2 emissions.
• Fair comparison
  Need to get some work done on the move? Then you might consider taking the train instead of driving to your next business meeting. routeRANK gives you the flexibility to take into account special considerations each time you plan your trips.

In the Master thesis “How much time, money and CO2 emissions could routeRANK save a typical travel planner?” the Statistical Laboratory of the University of Cambridge, finds that 'a typical user could stand to save around 35% when using routeRANK as well as around 2½ hours in research time'.
