Designer Mark Noad has created a new, more geographically accurate map of London's extensive subway system, "The Tube." Noad tips his hat to the classic, but says more lines have emphasized the inaccuracies.
Noad says the map will "make it easier to decide which route to take including whether it is quicker to walk between stations."
This clarity could be important: a recent study revealed that the current map leads 30% of Tube users to go a less efficient way than they could have.
