Well I do hate a bus. Being on the far left....if we are looking to the bus to solve the problems of modern mass transport....I think we are sunk. And I don't drive so I use the bus a lot.
I love the tram systems in Milan and Brussels (though Brussels may be more of a Metro). My ideal way of getting about....but I was reading about the one in Edinburgh...and the total cost jumped out.
I was wondering if, after all the cost and disruption, people who use it now think, "Wow this is great!" Or more like, "For a trillion pounds this is pretty crappy."
