2 years ago@No_One @ajsadauskas @poVoq Almere, The Netherlands was designed with dedicated bus rights of way for 90% of their route. The reason trams weren’t chosen was the expected population (trams carry 2x as many people) and the infrastructure cost that it adds. A concrete base, asphalt topped bus track is well under half the price due to the high cost of electrification.
@No_One @ajsadauskas @poVoq I would love them to upgrade to trams though then the right of way could be narrower and we could have grassed in tracks.
