`here_route`

Pack: here · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/here/mcp

TRAFFIC-AWARE routing and ETA between two locations via HERE — “how long to drive from Berlin to Munich”, “ETA from LAX to downtown LA in traffic”, “cycling route from A to B”. Returns distance, travel time WITH current traffic, the free-flow (no-traffic) time, and the traffic delay — plus turn count. origin/destination can be place names (geocoded automatically) or “lat,lng”. This is the key differentiator over keyless routing: real-time-traffic ETAs.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`origin`	string	yes	Start — place name (e.g. “LAX airport”) or “lat,lng”.
`destination`	string	yes	End — place name (e.g. “downtown Los Angeles”) or “lat,lng”.
`transport_mode`	string	no	car (default) \| truck \| pedestrian \| bicycle \| scooter.
