The tramline down King Wm, North Terrace, and down to Port Road is underutilised. There's no reason (other than absurd centre island stops) why buses couldn't run along the tram tracks and take some load off thevother lanes in those streets.
Some of you need to remember and never forget that this is Adelaide, not Germany.
Adelaide drivers cant even handle a bit of rain after a dry spell without multiple crashes all over the metro area. And you expect Adelaide to cope with buses and trams sharing a line?
A first step might be to advocate better and more extensive driver training.
Otherwise it will result in the same catastrophe we have on our roads at present with bikes and motor vehicles trying to share the same limited space divided up only by some white painted lines on the road that nobody gives a shit about when it suits them.
This government needs to grow a set already.
Forget these bit by bit plans and just announce a whole damn tram network in the CBD and inner suburbs, and start by building the CBD loops first and then extending out into the inner suburbs.
Enough pussy footing around. Who gives a damn if some self interest minority groups are offended or pissed off. Do we actually have real politicians anymore? Do your damn jobs and isolate the fools and clowns in society who hold the rest of the state back with their selfishness.
