Ray Stevens again
  Richard Youl

This morning tram-hating LNP MP Ray Stevens surprised me by stating clearly that the GC tram line would never go south beyond Burleigh, stage 3a. He stated that some government engineer told him that it was impossible to fit it though the cutting which is just south of the interim Burleigh terminus.

If this is true, I wonder why nobody has mentioned it before?

He also stated that even to Burleigh, it would bring high rise housing to the area and that as only 7% of residents near the existing tramline use the tram or buses, all this would do is clog the roads further. He did not mention that putting the housing, which had to be built somewhere anyway, would have 100% of the residents driving on the roads.
