Most Sydney Uni students, and almost all engineering students, go to
Redfern rather than Central. I would say that Redfern is at least 10
minutes less walking (Lawson St -> Abercrombie St, then about 300m into
Sydney Uni, rather than Railway Square -> Broadway -> City Road)

The Redfern walk is 5 minutes or so, perhaps a little more. The Central
one is probably 15 or 20.
