A redesign of the Tube map from 2008 by Max Roberts, with both zones and the Thames, but also consistent station spacing.
What’s noticable about this map, when comparing it with the official one, is that Roberts is far more willing to put a line on a diagonal and let it run to its conclusion that way, rather than prizing verticals, even if they have to be kinked.
It certainly maintains the feeling of being less cluttered (although is that because it doesn’t include the wheelchair blobs?)
(As seen in the commentary on this excellent diamond geezer post summarising the last week’s map furore.)
