I think you have to rework your requirements.
Assumed, that it is possible, to get all routes with a defined distance (on 
the route) from a given location, how many routes you will get, if your 
location is for example at the center of London? There will be a huge 
number of possible routes. By the way, to determine the distance on a 
route, you first need the route. So the distance cannot be parameter for 
determinig a route.

Well, you didn't really ask a question. You made several statements about
what you're vaguely trying to do. So what's the question? What is the exact
problem you're having?

I'm going to assume it's "how do I determine multiple valid routes of X
distance from a given point?"

Given that, vaguely, you would use the various maps APIs as gjs indicated
to:

1 - Get a list of places within an X distance radius (Places API)
2 - For each place, calculate a route to that place from the start
(Directions API)
3 - Present those routes as options to the user.

Hi gjs, Thanks for the reply but without trying to sound rude that doesn't 
really help much in answering my question.
I've been looking up way points, the Directions API and more but the 
problem is I can't anything that will get me on the right track.
Regards
