RE: IWLR trams shift to Pitt St in Central Station revamp

Isn’t there space between the IWLR track and the stone fence on the Eddy Ave side [where the second tram track used to be to allow taxis to load and unload passengers.

The present taxi stands outside the west end of the concourse are not very convenient for rail passengers to walk from and to the suburban platforms 10 to 23 and the underground ESR platforms 24 and 25.

It is only proposed to be a 200 room hotel, so the patronage turn over of taxis is not going to be high. Even if the tram frequency ramped up to five minutes, there is hardly likely to be congestion between the two modes if taxis were allowed to share the tram ramps for access.

But this might result in the loss of a few staff car parking spaces on the colonnade. Let's guess where the priorities lay?

Good Idea. Sell the Opera House and replace it with a decent tram depot!

G'day all, Not happy Jan ! This stupid State Gov will sell the Opera House for the land if they could make a buck !
What's next ! This is a stupid idea ! Especially moving the L1 terminus from Central to Pitt St.
Now I don't mind those towers in Lee St, but for heaven's sake leave the Heritage building alone !
Next thing you know they'll want to fill in Darling Harbour so they can put up more ugly glass monstrosities !
Fair Dinkum !
