Ranks computed at build time across the sibling pages of this same family. Averages computed from the same daily TomTom files as this archive.
Aggregated wait-time statistics at the Oria Gandria crossing for month 2026-08. Monthly average: 1 min. Data comes from TomTom traffic monitoring every 15 minutes during commuter peak hours. Useful to plan future trips based on observed historical behaviour.
How to read the Oria Gandria archive (2026-08)
The table aggregates 31 days of TomTom observations for Oria Gandria in 2026-08. Each cell in the "wait minutes" column is the hourly average over every weekday and weekend in the month at that time: the 07:00 cell pools every reading taken between 07:00 and 07:59 each day. The monthly mean is 1 min, computed over the full 24-hour day. Hours showing "—" lack enough polling samples to produce a reliable estimate (typically deep night, 02:00–04:00, at minor crossings without BAZG coverage).
To plan a future trip via Oria Gandria, compare the observed peak hours against the theoretical window for the Ticino–Como cluster (border.peak.lowTraffic CET). Hours above the monthly mean signal stable congestion, repeatable month after month and primarily driven by cross-border commuter flow; hours below the mean represent operational windows — useful for an earlier morning departure, a later evening return, or an atypical trip (medical appointment, non-work travel). The archive covers only the approach + checkpoint segment of the crossing: A2 motorway travel time from Lugano to Oria Gandria is not included and must be added separately (typically 12–25 minutes).
To pick the best crossing for a given day, compare the Oria Gandria archive with the same-month archive of nearby crossings in the Ticino–Como cluster: in 2026-08 queues can shift between crossings depending on A2 roadworks, events in Como or atypical commuter peaks. The crossing's "today" detail page shows the live value, refreshed every 10–15 minutes during peak windows, while the monthly archive stays useful as a baseline to detect day-of-week anomalies.
2026-08 archive FAQ
How is the hourly mean for Oria Gandria computed?
For every hour of the day we pool all TomTom samples taken in the 31 days of 2026-08 at that hour (one sample every 10–15 minutes during peak windows, every 30–60 minutes off peak) and average them. Hours without enough samples stay at "—" instead of surfacing an unreliable value.
Can I use this data to plan an evening return?
Yes: compare the 17:00–19:00 row with the observed peak window for Oria Gandria (border.peak.lowTraffic CET). If the mean is below the peak of other clusters, Oria Gandria is a good option for the commuter return. Always add 12–25 minutes for the Lugano–Oria Gandria motorway leg, which is not included in the queue figure.
