Two essential maps for walking around London during the Tube strike

By: Lynsey Barber

Commuters face more crazy travel troubles as Tube workers prepare to go on strike starting from 6pm on Sunday evening.

London Underground stations in Zone 1 are expected to be severely disrupted with many closed, meaning that travellers will have to find alternative routes to their destinations if still travelling into the city.

But, never fear, there are two very handy maps that will help you work out how far exactly that walk to the next station (or maybe the one after too) is if your journey gets cut short because of the strikes.

One presents how long it will take and the other shows how many steps (useful if you're trying to hit those 10k per day as part of a New Year regime).
