Plotting cycle routes in Worcester

Posted by volresource on 15 February, 2010

The national travel planning site Transport Direct now has a limited Find a Cycle Route facility alongside its more robust (and really quite useful) public transport planner.

Worcester is one area it claims to cover. No go trying to get it to produce a route to Malvern, but seems to work well for the city itself. You can choose from Quickest or Quietest, and in my test (St Johns to St Peters) this did produce very different results, as it should. Download the GPX files for your on-bike GPS device – that requires a right-click which isn’t mentioned but can’t complain really.

Worth checking if it covers where you want to go, and hopefully it will expand soon.
