Any expansion/improvement of our rubbish public transport system is to be encouraged......as long as it is actually affordable by the public!
Down with private transport!
But I suspect this project (and others to follow) is more to do with boosting the economy and providing jobs.
Usual model of the economy is doing bad...........do lots of public works
Of course committees of rich big wigs and corporations with jump at the opportunity to sit at the top of the pile and bleed off as much money as they can to line their pockets.
Ever wonder why when something is built it never comes in on budget?
