I normally take pic line to ears court. Then district or circle to

Now the interchange at Green Park is very very long, between pic
and vic lines.
Anyone know of a better way/ quicker way?The Picc-Vic interchange at Green Park is long, but I doubt if it takes

more time than making two changes, both involving steps and escalators.

I've never timed it but I think that taking the escalator up to the
ticket hall level at Green Park, then the other escalator down to the
Victoria line platforms is supposed to be quicker, especially if you're
at the rear of the Picc train.

Couldn't you change at Baron's Court. You will know if you have just
overtaken a District line train for Victoria.
