Mapquest have launched the beta version of it’s new multi-stop Route Builder feature. This new tool lets travellers save time and money by mapping out their entire journey before they travel – and multiple destination stops in between – in one step.

Unfortunately, at the moment it’s only available for people travelling within the USA, but for those readers who are looking to go on a road trip around the USA during the Summer, then it’s the perfect tool to track and plan your journey.

MapQuest’s Route Builder lets users:

- Add up to 10 location destinations along a route;
- Search for destination by address or place name;
- Optimise route to avoid highways or toll roads;
- Find gas stations, hotels, restaurants, ATMs, and other places along the way;
- Re-order stops by dragging and dropping and recalculate driving directions;
- Print, or email route; and
- Choose to show or hide directions as the route is plotted.

Apparently, the Route Builder feature was most popular requested feature among the millions of users. According to MapQuest, the website recently had a record 50 million unique monthly visitors (wow!) which is two and a half times more than it’s leading competitor!
