Abstract
The disclosure includes a system and method for generating travel itineraries including planning departure times of rides in consideration of congestion mitigation. The system includes a processor configured to receive a ride request requesting transportation to a destination location via a road network and determine an initial travel itinerary for the ride request based on real-time traffic data for the road network, which initial travel itinerary may include an initial departure time. The system may compute an adjusted travel itinerary for the ride request based on a postponed departure time relative to the initial departure time using projected traffic data. In some instances, the system may then generate a data file including the postponed departure time of the adjusted travel itinerary and the initial departure time and may customize the graphical user interface to show graphical elements representing the initial travel itinerary and the adjusted travel itinerary.
