We hope that Transport for London will publish the 2013 and early 2014 data soon, as this will reveal hotspots of activity in the extended network which now reaches as far as Putney.<\/p>\n<p>You can see <a href=\"http:\/\/mappinglondon.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/bmjfinal.png\">a larger version of the map here<\/a>.

The following map has been produced by them to illustrate the potential structure of the network. Some of the routes shown are speculative and subject to a consultation (which has just closed &#8211; sorry!) Obviously, where this map ties up with the predicted usages above, such a network should prove particularly popular.
