Petition for another light rail stop in Surry Hills: teamclover.com.au/wimbolightra

I've signed mostly because I don't like the argument that stops would be too close together because of a fixed '400m catchment', which is outdated and not representative of mode choice decisions & experience for shorter trips.

Having registered my opposition to catchment analyses... here's a rough one anyway.

These close stops here and in the CBD would make more sense if the light rail was faster - long dwell times and slow acceleration seem to be the main causes which could potentially be improved.

But I haven't done an end-to-end access analysis which would help really understand how useful or not the stop is.
