While we can now simply roll out of bed in the morning and head to our desks for work, we would normally spend our mornings rushing through the city on the Tube.

And although we miss being able to go outside, there are certain things that we wish were a lot better on the London Underground for when we return.

Are you from Reading and want a train straight to Tottenham Court Road?

Well, your future looks bright - although it might take a few more years for you to see any change.

With a lot of changes being proposed and a lot in the works, the London Tube map is going to look considerably different in the future. Luckily for us, a Redditor by the name of u/Not_Quite_Vertical has gone to great lengths to produce an unofficial map that gives us a great idea of what our commutes will look like in 2040.

The potential Crossrail 2 developments as well as a Bakerloo line extension are just a couple of changes that we should see in the future. Here's what we can expect:

In short, here are the changes made in this map

1. Crossrail 2

2. Northern line extension to Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station

3. Bakerloo line extension to Lewisham, Beckenham Junction and Hayes

4. DLR and Overground extensions to Thamesmead

5. New Tramlink from South Wimbledon to Sutton

6. West London Orbital from Hounslow to West Hampstead and Hendon

7. Old Oak Common station

8. Re-routing the Piccadilly line to serve Chiswick Park and Ealing Broadway

There are changes to the map in every corner so you should all be able to spot something that will improve your commute.

So, without further ado, I present to you... the future:

Central London

East London
