How far is a 15 minute drive?
On typical road speeds a 15 minute drive reaches about 4 to 6 miles through towns and 8 to 12 miles on open A roads and motorways. That usually covers a town and the villages around it. A plain mile radius circle can't show this: it ignores rivers, one way systems and the roads you can actually drive on. This map follows OpenStreetMap roads, so the shape stretches along fast roads and pulls in where the roads are slow.
Using a 15 minute drive as your service area
A 15 minute drive is a tight, busy service area: short gaps between visits, more appointments a day and low fuel costs. It suits services booked often, like foot care rounds, dog walking, cleaning and hairdressing.

Good to know
Times use typical road speeds, not live traffic, so allow extra time at rush hour. Drag the pin or click the map to move the centre.
Questions
- How many miles is a 15 minute drive? About 4 to 6 miles in towns and 8 to 12 miles on main roads, depending on the roads around the start point.
- Is a drive time map the same as a mile radius? No. A drive time map follows real roads and speed limits, so it reaches further along main roads and less far through towns.
- Can I use the area for online booking? Yes. In Offlico you can set a drive time from your base as the area customers can book you in.
