Travel Time Maps To Wembley & Other London Football Stadiums
These isochron travel time maps to each of London’s major football stadiums were all created using TFL’s WebCAT (no loner available).
The service is primarily aimed at the planning community, but as these estimated travel time maps to London’s biggest football stadiums show, the public can benefit as well.

Map of Cycle Paths in Europe
Most of the time stereotypes are inaccurate, but every once in awhile their not. And the map above is the perfect illustration of this. It shows the number of cycle paths across Europe.
One very clear thing emerges, true to the stereotype the Dutch have a lot of cycle paths.
In fact according to Statista:
As of 2022, it was estimated that there were approximately 23.9 million bicycles in the Netherlands. Meanwhile, the population of the country totaled 17.6 million, meaning there were an average of 1.4 bikes per person in the country. The number of bicycles in the country has been on an upward trend for the past years.
I love when maps like this are clearly not population density maps and can tell us something interesting about cultural differences in Eruope.
