Scary Bear Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 6 minutes ago, Shandon Par said: I still struggle to get my head round the benefit of the trams, especially given the expense. The official journey times are the same as the bus. There's already a train line with two stops in the city centre that follows roughly the same route and goes through the edge of the airport. It decimated businesses in the west end of Edinburgh and turned it into a scruffy no-go zone during the work and left it pretty unappealing after. London and Glasgow managed to build an underground well over 100 years ago. It would transform Edinburgh but with Brexit looming the funding for anything bold has to be on shaky ground. Trams is what you have and it’s all you’re getting more of. The only benefit I can see is that it’s another option and an option business will like more than buses. Buses are okay but i’m not a great fan of them. Trains and trams are much easier for non-residents of a City to use as they have a clearly defined route map. Bus companies have got better at using technology to make buses more appealing by more clearly identifying routes but they’ve not done a very good job of this until fairly recent times.

RiG Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I still think it's absolutely mental sending a tram down Ocean Drive and Constitution Street. No way anyone else can get past unless they widen the roads which they obviously won't do. I guess these areas will get blocked off for cars unless you live nearby and become public transport corridors. Send the thing along Great Junction Street instead As the survey says the majority are perfectly happy with public transport provision down that end of the city. There are buses every couple of minutes after all. Throwing a tram into the mix just seems utterly pointless. It's clearly going ahead anyway. The consultation is just a tick box exercise. They've already started work on the Picardy Place "improvements" to accommodate the trams heading towards Leith Walk. Easter Road is going to be a laugh when they close Leith Walk northbound send send all the traffic along Duke Street and up Easter Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
