Hey all,
Noticed google maps doesnt natively support bike + public transport transit options and you can normally find much better routes if you account for this than just walk + public transport and convert walk times to cycle times.

Spent the weekend making an MVP for London (east london coverage not great since DLR+Elizabeth+Overground lines are left out atm)
You can see the time save compared to google maps fastest route is insane. Think this would be pretty good marketing for buying a brompton XD.
Anyway let me know how you find it, sorry if Ive missed any details bit sleep deprived to make sure it gets finished over the weekend 🙂
Happy to answer questions about getting things set up or how anything works.

That’s great! Clean looking project, how adaptable is it to non-Tfl data sources? I guess that’s a very open ended question.
This is great. I’m always struggling to figure out first mile / last mile options around public transport travelling around the country.
Rome2rio would love to see this, I’m sure.
This is really cool, great job. Would love to see a hosted version linked to UK train routes.
