Still missing some important links. Try using that map to get from Lewisham to Elmers End, for example. Or Brixton to Beckenham Junction.

Surprised it doesn't appear to have anything about the Lambeth North closure (but mentions a further away, shorter closure of Barbican which isn't on the Station closures PDF on the TfL site - anyone know the nature of this work?)

It appears that the lifts at Vauxhall won't be in service any time soon due to the step free symbol being removed.

Anybody else look for the orange dashed line in the key, missing the big explanation at top right?

Still yet to appear in the wild, delivery not expected for at least another week. Will be labelled as a 'June 2016' edition as such.

I hope that visitors to London will not just use this map when venturing to Croydon... travelling via Wimbledon is probably the slowest way to get there, so unless they actually want the tram they should go to Victoria or Farringdon / London Bridge.
The map is still missing Cranley Gardens / Muswell Hill / etc.

The new map should start appearing in the wild from Friday, although this won't be unilateral as stations will use old stock up first.
Updated thread title to 'June 2016 tube map' to reflect this.

I got all excited because I thought I'd noticed something new, which was that Heathrow 123 now said Heathrow 23, but then I looked at an old map and realized how late I was (oh the joys over being an overseas enthusiast)

The latest London Connections map has been appearing at National Rail stations. available here: tfl.gov.uk/maps/track/national-railThe main changes appear to be: - The information box headings are now red - The Gatwick Express is now the same colour as the Northern line - Lea Bridge station added - Great Western services added around Gatwick Airport - Gospel Oak-Barking line closure shown as on the tube map |

As far as I know, Terminal 1 at Heathrow Airport has now closed and it will be replaced by an extension of Terminal 2.

Both the December 2015 and June 2016 maps have the station as: "Heathrow Terminals 2 & 3" Heathrow Express/Connect have renamed their station as such. Terminal 1 will not be reopening. |

Without wishing to go off-topic, has all signage at the tube station been changed? And will Heathrow continue with no terminal numbered '1'?

My understanding is that Heathrow is moving (back) to named rather than numbered terminals.

The Tramlink zone looks awkward, somehow.

Or rather, this map was supposed to come out in May 2016, but it became clear that it wouldn't quite make it to the stations in May, so it's been redubbed the June 2016 map, as that's when it actually came out. |

Changes since December that I don't think have been previously mentioned:
- Greenford - change from step-free to train to step-free to platform
- Cambridge Heath and London Fields - line changed from 0° to 45°
- Walthamstow Central-Walthamstow Queen's Road and Wanstead Park-Forest Gate links removed
- Blackhorse Road - Interchange symbol replaced with two separate tick marks
- Walthamstow Queen's Road - Step-free access symbol removed
- Tuffnel Park reopens
- Caledonian Road - dagger removed
- Paddington and Holland Park - daggers remain blue despite changing to red everywhere else
- Wimbledon and West Croydon - tram interchange symbols removed (for obvious reasons)
- Morden - zone error on preview map corrected
- West Hampstead - now shown as two interchange circles with a short link rather than a single circle
- South Tottenham - now step free from street to platform
Presumably as a consequence of the tramlink addition, the spacing and relative positioning of almost all other stations has also changed to a greater or lesser extent. |

why Walthamstow Queen's Road - Step-free access is removed?

Post by snoggle on Jun 4, 2016 19:22:51 GMT
why Walthamstow Queen's Road - Step-free access is removed? Because there is no train service nor access across or to the station. The ramps were all still there yesterday - I walked up a couple of them.  |

Isn't the Heathrow Express / Connect station called Heathrow Central, so wouldn't need to rename their station but just change the signage. |

Studying the map, shouldn't all stations on the Met Line between Wembley Park and Moor Park apart from Harrow-on-the-Hill gain read daggers, as you have the stopping and semi-fast trains, similar to Cambridge Heath and London Fields?

The more interesting thing to me is that the direct and indirect interchanges at Walthamstow QR, Blackhorse Road and Wanstead Park have been removed, but the one Barking hasn't. |

The intention is that Heathrow Central will be the name for the stations and surface buildings.
This is the name originally used for the Piccadilly line station.
