Useful TFL journey planner function

Need to get folk to meet at a specific place? The Transport For London Journey Planner is a useful site, but it's not easy to link to it from your web pages. At least that used to be the case...

You can now add a button to blog postings (and web pagers) that will allow you to link to a preset Journey Planner search.

In true Blue Peter fashion, here's one I made earlier that will navigate you from anywhere in London to The London Eye.



Useful, and so easy to set up. Highly recommended.

[Update: [livejournal.com profile] nmg recommends Transport Direct as a service for planning travel outside the metropolis.]

Asked for instructions from Broxbourne Station (Just outside London) to Wellington Street WC. Simple you may think but no.
Acton Town/Barking was the start point shown to some place I have not heard of.
Good thing buses and trains are not controlled by a computer. Who knows where you may end up Brian Lost somewhere???
