Default TfL Journey Planner - how dare you walk, while we use your money to fill the streets with empty buses!

Can you accurately guess the shortest walking route from Barham Close HA0
to Hollycroft Avenue HA9, just by looking at a map? How about the shortest
walking route from Kilburn High Road station to Tottenham Court Road
station?


Hollycroft Av, Forty Av, Wembley Hill Rd, Park Lane, High Rd, Harrow Rd,
Bridgewater Rd, Barham Cl.

Edgware Road to Marble Arch then along Oxford Street.

That was fairly straightforward, do I win a prize?

I know someone who walked from Kilburn to the British Library and back, 5
days a week for at least five years. I hope he took the correct route.


I am sure that in 5 years he had worked out the quickest route for himself
without having to rely on the TfL Journey Planner.
