This has been long overdue, and it has finally been unveiled to make wayfinding easier for people navigating the public transport system in London. This is a follow up to my
previous article, published in May 2022.
TfL Press release:
London’s Overground lines to be given new names and colours in historic change to capital’s transport network
• For the first time ever, each of London’s six Overground lines will be represented by a new name and line colour
• The new names have been chosen through engagement with customers, stakeholders, historians, industry experts and local communities
• New names, line colours and maps will make it easier for customers to navigate the London Overground and further build ridership, while celebrating London’s diverse communities and histories
In a historic re-imagining of London’s public transport network, each of London’s six overground lines will for the first time ever be given a unique name and line colour. This significant change, which will include a major update to London’s world-famous Tube map, will make it easier for customers to navigate London’s transport network while also celebrating the city’s diverse culture and history.
