A few common questions.
Understand the result before making your next move.
How do I measure distance on the map?
Search for a start and end address, or choose Start or End and tap the map. The line and distance update immediately. Switch between miles and kilometres without changing your points.
Is this a walking or driving route?
No. This tool measures the shortest surface distance between the points, not a road route. Use the travel-time tool for an estimated reachable area following streets and paths.
Can I use this to compare business locations?
Use it to check proximity to a station, car park, competitor or other landmark. A short distance alone does not establish safe access, customer demand or business suitability.
Put your premises checks alongside customer demand and competition with our retail site selection guide.
