Walkit.com launches in Birmingham

Walkit.com is a newish site that’s trying to get everyone to walk places. Type in your route, it gives you either the quickest or least busy route (and tells you how much carbon you’ll save by getting out of your car). It’s also social so users can suggest new routes.
It’s been pretty successful in London and they’ve just added Birmingham to their list of cities. Not sure how useful it’s going to be yet but I’ll definitely give it a go (not that I ever seem to go south of Digbeth these days).

My place to Digbeth in 24 past aced minutes. All it needs to add is walk time at drunk stagger speeds and the service will be complete. GREAT SITE. Picture Pete, Hat Antonio. [...]
