When there have been problems on the Met at Liverpool Street/Aldgate I've found it difficult to easily walk due to poor signage. It's an easy change when you know the way. I'd walk through Finsbury Circus or along South Place, Eldon Street and Liverpool Street. See this map... http://tinyurl.com/nfxt6 St Pauls (Central Line) to City Thameslink NR. Isn't Chancery Lane closer to City Thameslink? If you come out of City Thameslink at the Holborn Viaduct exit then I think St Pauls just pips it. Of course you could head to one or the other dependent on whether you were heading east or west. Camden Town (Northern Line) to Camden Road NR (North London Line) Kentish Town NR (Thameslink) to Kentish Town West NR (North London Line) - though most passengers would be better off changing at West Hampstead. Haringay Green Lanes NR (GOBLIN) to Manor House (Piccadilly Line) South Tottenham (GOBLIN) to Seven Sisters (NR and Victoria Line) Quite a few examples of the mess on the North London Line and the GOBLIN. The latter seems to have only one intermediate interchange - and that's a relatively modern addition. Is there any prospect of any of these being added to the maps and made valid for interchanges? Orbirail will be messy given the limited interchanges with a number of roots. Some of these do involve a short walk, which perhaps negates them being called an interchange. I guess there's the clarity of the maps to consider as well before slapping distant interchanges all over them. But perhaps some could be indicated on line maps. One thing to say is that TfL has funded a lot of improvements to street signage for pedestrians near both Tube and NR stations as well as providing local street map displays and local bus spider maps, all of which are very welcome improvements IMO. ---- East ---- Whitechapel to Bethnal Green NR - for changing from the East London Line to Enfield/Chingford Town bound trains & vice versa. Bethnal Green tube is even closer to the NR station isn't it? Yes, perhaps I should've included that. I was thinking more of the south-east to north-east link that changing here provides, it's a great way to get from New Cross to Hackney, though if you're going further north then you need to be on top of the train times. It also avoids zone 1. Forest Gate NR ('one' Great Eastern line) to Wanstead Park NR (GOBLIN) - for changing from the GOBLIN from points West to Great Eastern line to points East or vice versa. Indeed - so close they're on the same road. Just why isn't interchange allowed between the two? Er, nothing bans you changing there, I've done it! If you mean why isn't it on the maps, then that's a fair enough point. Leytonstone High Road NR (GOBLIN) to Leytonstone (Central Line) Very close - the end of the High Road platform (although not the section currently in use) is above the Central Line tracks. Could a passageway/ramp be put in here? That's one I've never done. What you suggest is similar to the proposed Walthamstow Central to Walthamstow Queens Road bridge as detailed he http://www.alwaystouchout.com/project/69 |
