Okay okay I'm playing Hot Take Thursday too.

I think trams are inefficient... they are so inflexible with rerouting, you can't have express services, they can get majorly delayed by traffic, and because they can't overtake, if one breaks down a whole lot get stuffed, and I still think it's wild you often have to walk into the road to get on/off trams. And new routes are next to impossible to establish these days. I think people defend trams for the romantic charm but I think they are increasingly impractical for a city this size. Would rather see electric buses with bus lanes or fully separated light rail, not this worst of both worlds kind of thing.
