Lightrail folly exposed - isn't high capacity even for Big Events, nor at transit oriented developments
By Peter Samuel on May 10, 2011
Think of the ideal circumstances where lightrail might be competitive with a car: (1) a Big Event with large masses of people at one destination (2) expensive or scarce parking at the Big Event (3) blank slate developments planned in detail as transit oriented.
