Hawthorn electorate tram and bus stops

“The Petition of certain citizens of the State of Victoria, draws to the attention of the Legislative Council the lack of adequate shelters at various tram and bus stops across the Hawthorn electorate which discourages the use of public transport for commuters and diminishes the travelling experience of those who depend on public transport.

The Petitioners therefore request that the Legislative Council call upon the Andrews Government to finally respond to the needs of public transport commuters in the Hawthorn electorate by constructing adequate shelters at:

• Tram stop 48 on Riversdale Road in Camberwell;

• Tram stop 36 on Riversdale Road in Hawthorn East;

• The bus stop at the intersection of Daphne Street and Canterbury Road in Canterbury; and

• Such other tram and bus stops in the electorate which, upon careful and thorough consideration, warrant the construction of similar shelters.”
