            Abstract : 
To evaluate the reliability of the road network, the paper designed a mathematic model of travel time reliability index. Using the travel time reliability index, the paper analyzed the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of Beijing road network reliability based on the floating car data. The results show that the travel time reliability is the lowest at the afternoon peak hour and there are obvious differences between different days and different areas.
