Why not the actual midpoint?

The geographic midpoint of Notting Hill and Tooting is near Clapham Junction (Map ↗). Meeting there costs whoever is travelling furthest an extra 5 minutes; Victoria is fairer once you count real journey times. London’s transport map is not its geography: the Thames splits it, and half the Tube lines don’t cross it.
