With a few exceptions any type of public transportation that depends on rails and a fixed route are a bad idea. They can't respond to changing needs or emergencies effectively and if one breaks down the entire system comes to a grinding halt! Obviously there are some examples where streetcars and/or subways work very well but those systems are huge and have ways to bypass problem areas, something that wouldn't exist in any systems that are being proposed for Louisville.<br /><br />The upfront costs are also ridiculously high for the benefit that will be received. How many people would actually use the market Street route on a regular basis? I'm guessing the number would be quite low. If you add the startup costs and the annual operating costs together there is no business in existence that would make the investment! It just makes no economic sense.<br /><br />If you want another example just look at Walt Disney World. Instead of expanding their monorail system to transfer the ever-growing number of visitors they are now using a huge fleet of buses. The buses have much more flexibility and are cheaper to purchase and operate. Why does anybody think that the economics for Louisville to go to streetcars makes any sense?<br /><br />We need to quit having these fantasies and start looking at realities!Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02186768781626925015noreply@blogger.com
