Here's a question ..

Andrea B.

No outer bypass.
Then all energies and investments in to an overhead light rail/tram central pillars and above road.
Running from Cappagh Road Roundabout through to Castlegar/Doughiska.
Stops every half mile and frequent trains with small carriages.
Think along similar to airport shuttles between terminals.
These modern rail structures and systems are not that wide.
Think parknride at main end points like Cappagh road and Doughiska with a system guaranteed to get you in/across town with high frequency of shuttles....
I firmly believe that studies might show a potential significant reduction in road traffic with such a system.

This is the driverless system in Kuala Lumpar.
