Travel-time Maps in the UK and their Uses

A fascinating brief report on the Department of Transport (DOT) OT funded attempt to produce graphic displays of times to travel, using "isoclines" calculated to show time / distance from a central location . London / Cambridge / Edinburgh.

This could also be integrated into schools location , House prices / etc.,

Novel and interesting but the data used controlled almost 100% by the Gubment. Well, well worth a visit.
