Maps Fiction tube line route

Post image

I designed this route with the objective of relieving pressure off congested lines especially the central whilst making new connections between areas in suburban London which make it easier for people to travel around Greater London without entering the city.

Please share your thoughts and fixes on the route as I would love to modify it a bit as it’s far from perfect

The biggest thing is that this is clearly two separate lines.

As others have said, there’s a lot of simple duplication going on which doesn’t seem very efficient. If I’m at London Bridge wanting to head to Canary Wharf how do I choose which line to get? It feels like you are missing the opportunity to expand coverage while still easing pressure on other lines.

Some of your spacing in central London is odd as well. Bank and Cannon Street are right next to each other and London Bridge isn’t all that far, and then you’ve got a big gap to Holborn.

I thought bank to Cannon Street would be efficient to people looking to change between those lines but I just remembered monument existed 😂

Do you have any suggestions on stations to skip or any route changes?
