It took Beijingers an average of 52 minutes to commute to work this year, the longest journey time among 50 cities nationwide, according to a report from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, reported the Legal Mirror Wednesday.
The statistics show that the average commute time increased 14 minutes compared to the average time last year.
The report blamed most commuting problems on the public transport network not keeping up with development.
