Subject: Walking and Avoiding Highways in API v2.124
v2.124 adds walking and avoid highways routing to the API.

The new GDirectionsOptions are:
   {travelMode:G_TRAVEL_MODE_WALKING}
   {avoidHighways:true}

The defaults are
   {travelMode:G_TRAVEL_MODE_DRIVING}
   {avoidHighways:false}

Example: http://econym2.googlepages.com/temp_walk.htm

Note: API v2.124 is not yet live. It's possible that the code may be
changed before it goes live.

Just a reminder: Don't hardcode to 2.124 for any live production site,
since this is 2.xx and not intended for developer consumption. Feel
free to use for experimental purposes, assuming you don't mind if
experiments break. :)

It is live (v=2), but the parameters are not documented.

However this message:
http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Maps-API/msg/e0f994acddd8499f
says it may not stay live long in its current form.

Is it working for loadFromWaypoints too? I'm using it like this:

directions.loadFromWaypoints(itineraryPlanner_wayPoints,
{travelMode:G_TRAVEL_MODE_WALKING, avoidHighways:true,
getPolyline:true, locale:"en_US"});

but I'm always getting a 603 error.

It looks like walking has been switched off in the server "for legal or
contractual reasons". We were warned that something like that might
happen.

Avoiding highways still works at present.

.loadFromWaypoints() is simply a wrapper that parses the array into a
string and calls .load(), so they succeed or fail together.

Any idea when the walking feature will be enabled again or better yet
released?

Thanks,
