It does look pretty cool, it would be cooler if it could actually get from
the start point to the stop point, just playing with it now, out of 6
attempts between different points, only once did it take me to the stop
point, the rest it sent me down back streets and into dead ends without
making it to the stop point...

The OL bit looks pretty straight forward, all the magic is done by a bit of
PHP using pgRouting... So, all we have to do is reproduce that backend
functionality in some way... If we were to just work off the database as it
is now, I'd guess it be a reasonably complex request that would potentially
use lots of resources to complete...
