Correction to: Public Transport 12, 233–259 (2020) https​://doi.org/10.1007/s1246​9-019-00226​-9 I wish to correct a small but nonetheless important error in my paper “The role of city geometry in determining the utility of a small urban light rail/tram system”, Mc Gettrick, M., Public Transport, Vol. 12, pp. 233–259, (2020), DOI https​://doi. org/10.1007/s1246​9-019-00226​-9. The equation at the beginning of Sect. 4.4, and also Eq. (45) at the end of Appendix B, should both be replaced by

IF =

23 . 72

Furthermore, a few calculations leading up to this expression in Appendix B should be changed, specifically: 1. Appendix B, Eq. (41): • Replace a4(1 + 6 ln 2)/9 by a4(1 − 2 ln 2/3). • Replace 2 ­ a2(1 + 6 ln 2)/9 by 2a2(1 − 2 ln 2/3).

2. Appendix B, Eq. (44): • Replace 4(1 + 6 ln 2)∕3 by 12 − 8 ln 2. • Replace a2 (7 + 24 ln 2)∕18 by 23a2 ∕18.
