Was looking around at my local area and a couple of thoughts occurred to me that I figured I'd get some other opinions on.
First up: I noticed a bit of an anomaly in the gap between Hove and Brighton stations, given the population density. Digging a little deeper I found there was originally a station here, and I think it would be beneficial to have one here again with an entrance on Montefiore Road (and perhaps a secondary entrance onto Holland Road).
A cheap and cheerful modern station wouldn't cost too much I'd have thought, and it'd have a great catchment area. Might also add a bit more utility to the Brighton-Hove shuttles.
Next up, how about a change to London Road station by renaming to, and a new entrance on, Ditchling Road. It seems quite bizarre to have the station and road access on such a tiny backwater road with no buses running past it, so an entrance on Ditchling Road would ease the interchange.
Thoughts?
