Agreed. The fact that it cost _so_ much is part of why we should not have public transport on rails. The money would have far better spent on better and more buses. And dedicated bus lanes and roads.
I have an inside story on the tram (light rail) construction. Workers were hired and literally did nothing for months. No wonder it cost so much.
- blaser-waffle 7y agoSo the problem is corrupt and lazy managers, not that trams are bad.
- emmelaich 7y agoYep, but trains/trams have a romantic aura which is exploited. And being a fixed high visibility project makes it so much easier to exploit.
