Hi I'm a college student and I'm trying to make my graduation work to be about polish transit diagrams and their designs (what is wrong and how make it look better) but to do that I need to base my work on some literature or research. Do you know some kind of works, books or whatever about transit diagrams??? I haven't found anything solid yet and I'm kinda losing hope...
Bad Dürkheim is a town of 19,000 people in southwestern Germany, about 25 km (15 mi) from Mannheim. It is part of the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan area.
Their current official transit map is terrible so I made this redesign which includes not only urban bus services but also regional ones (452, 453) and the newly added urban bus (491) for Freinsheim (5,000 inh).
weekday urban services (frequency):
485 Bahnhof - Hardenburg Waldschlössel (60 min) –> Ruheforst is only served on weekends
486 Bahnhof - Seebach (~ 30 min) –> altering between two different variants
487 Bahnhof - Gustav-Kirchhoff-Straße (60 min) 487 Bahnhof - Salierschule - Bahnhof (60 min)
488 Bahnhof - Sonnenwende (60 min) 488 Bahnhof - Wurstmarktplatz (60 min)
489 Bahnhof - Lindemannsruh (120 min) –> only served on weekends
490 Bahnhof - Magnolienring - Bahnhof (60 min)
weekday regional services:
452 Triftweg - Neuleiningen (60 min) 453 Bahnhof - Grünstadt (60 min)
weekday urban service Freinsheim:
491 Bahnhof - Alzeyer Straße (60 min)
Some parts of Augsburgs tram network are unused or only used to get to the depot or special occasions. A significant amount of these tracks are right in the city centre, which I think is a shame. That's where line 7 could help:
I called it line 7 because there is a number 5 in the planning stage, running from Hauptbahnhof to Uniklinik, so I just chose the next available number.
Also, this is the first time I tried making a transit diagram, so feedback is appreciated :)
This is a newer version of a previous map, with a few alterations.
bus lines (frequencies):
84 Main Station - Oppau (20 min)
460 Main Station - Grünstadt (60 min)
461 Main Station - Grünstadt (60 min)
462 Main Station - Kleinniedesheim (60 min) 462 Main Station - Bobenheim Station via Kleinniedesheim (60 min)
463 Main Station - Bobenheim Station (60 min)
464 Haltepunkt Süd - Mörsch (60 min) 464 Main Station - Mörsch (60 min)
465 Main Station - Ruchheim Am Herrschaftsweiher (60 min)
466 Main Station - Studernheim (60 min)
467 Main Station - Oggersheim Station (60 min)
469 Stadtklinik (Hospital) - Orsmheimer Hof (30 min)
470 Main Station - Zeppelinstraße (60 min)
I made this map of Milan's tram system, what do you think (obv ut doesn't include all the stops, It would be impossible :-) )
Hello, I just have one question, I have a fan-made map in Metrodreamin' and want to know what are programs that are near or exactly like the CTA's style? I feel that I'm begging but I don't want it to be only 45º & 90º. I have already tried Tennesine and it's difficult to operate. Anything helps. The link to the map is this.
This is RFE (Royal Fruit Express), a metro diagram belonging to the "Royal City" (fictional) including a High-Speed Rail, Two Airports, and a MAJOR Station, and has 8 (9) lines. Updates may occur sometime in the future, this is made by the creators of Hawksmith Metro and the diagram was made before Hawksmith Metro even started.
Problems of this diagram:
I think that's really it.
This took me 2 months Planning to extend the whole map to the Kansai area(because Kobe and Amagasaki just look empty
