Research by the Trade Union Congress (TUC) has found that the number of commuters spending more than 2 hours travelling to and from work has increased by 72% over the past 10 years increasing from 1.7 million in 2004 to 3 million in 2014. The study also found that the number of people spending 3 hours or more commuting has risen by 75% over the last decade from 500,000 to 880,000.
