Mind you, if one of the policies of the ‘Friends of the Bee-Line’ is to reinstate Worldmasters on the service, I might have to have a bet each way… 8^)

Sounds like more typical crap from the road lobby. Logic suggests that once again having tram and rail services meeting together that patronage is likely to increase because it is one less change of mode to get from the Railway station to Victoria Square.

Congratulations to the S.A. Government for having the foresight to re-invest in Light Rail for the future. I hope the new Flexities are a great success and that some new renaissance will occur for trams in Adelaide. Of any Australian city its wide city streets are perfect for this in a future where the cost of oil will inevitably lead to a complete reassessment of public transport needs.

City tram line plan is 'crazy'

11 Dec 05

Sunday Advertiser, Adelaide

THE $21 million plan to extend the Glenelg tramline down King William
St to the North Tce railway station has been blasted as "crazy" by the
RAA. [Royal Automobile Association]

The state's peak motorists' body has questioned the planning processes
used to approve the controversial extension.
