Tube Map with Walklines
For some journeys it's really not worth getting on the tube: it takes a long time, and costs you money. Sometimes it's quicker and easier to walk.
This is a slightly altered map showing which stations are an arbitrary and as-the-crow-flies 500 metres apart from each other. The "walklines" are dotted in. It doesn't look great yet, and definitely reduces the readability of the standard tube map at the moment, which isn't a good thing. So it's not an improvement on the map, but it's an interesting exercise.
See also:
- the same with the tube map faded out slightly, so you see the walklines more easily.
- the walklines without the original tube map behind it. They look like un-named constellations.
- a bit more context for these images.
Nb: you can pop-up a bigger version here.
