In some positive news for the much beleaguered CBD and South East Light Rail project, the Geographical Names Board has officially approved the final stop names for all 19 stops along the route.
Mid last year the NSW government submitted names to the Geographical Names Board, who undertook community consultation on the Government’s proposed names and received extensive feedback.
The intention of the chosen names is to ensure major destinations including Moore Park, the university, hospitals and the racecourse were recognised, alongside the most major geographical features near the stops.
The official light rail stop names are:
- Circular Quay
- Bridge Street
- Wynyard
- QVB
- Town Hall
- Chinatown
- Haymarket
- Central Chalmers Street
- Surry Hills
- Moore Park
- Royal Randwick
- Wansey Road
- UNSW High Street
- Randwick
- ES Marks
- Kensington
- UNSW Anzac Parade
- Kingsford
- Nine Ways
