What a pile of crap. What is wrong with a combined train and tram system?
-
@coleys4 So your telling me that a train never has that problem? In fact a train is a lot more dangerous because it takes miles to stop.... A bus can brake, they travel at 60 mph and brake, if there is a dead animal they run it over.. why would a dead animal affect the bus? If there is a tree in the way it brakes, like on roads, the driver controls the bus with the brakes and accelerator i'm sure
-
@coleys4 - presumably the same/similar emergency/maintenance response that it would require if it was a train line? I'm guessing they've factored in the buses needing to reverse occasionally!

No sound, no watch.

@bobman13579 That would be to easy.

@coleys4 those problems happen on railways and tramways as well. Vandals always put things on railway tracks, and as we all know many delays on the railways have been caused by leaves on the line, and fallen trees!

look at 0.58 and just a few seconds after at the pedestrian crossing watch the steering wheel give it some thats gunna cost the council just as much in n/s tyers!!!

@coleys4 and @dajwilkinson I live in Adelaide Australia and we have this same system of transport. We have been running it for over 25 years and have had only 2 accidents even with there being many night services (every 15 minutes until 1130pm). It has been proven many times that this is one, if not, the safest public transport medium in the world. It also encourages use of public buses as we have over two million passengers a year on busway services.

@coleys4 It's a bad design pure and simple. Suppose a guided bus breaks down at night with an electrical failure. This leaves no lights on the bus and there is no busway lighting. It would be easy for another bus to hit it - there are no signals to protect them - and even if the second bus stops in time, it can't overtake or turn round. Then there's the matter of getting emergency services to the site... If the solution had to be buses, a bus-lane-only road would have made far more sense!

@trainlover657 Two words: "Political". "Decision". (if those don't contradict each other - lol)

OK so what happens if a animal dies on the track bed / debris from a falling tree / vandals place something in the path or what happens if a bus gets a puncture, to many problems I see here
