Traumatic trams

Monday 16 December 2013

One billion pounds has been spent on misery, disappointment and frustration. These are the feelings of the majority of people in Edinburgh on the dreaded topic of the Edinburgh trams. I cannot even start to think about where the money could have been spent elsewhere, in a city that, let us be honest, is not in great need of a tram system. The project has been spiralling out of control for years under extremely poor management. Surely, someone has to take the blame or this shambolic proposal. The Government? The contractors? The project is now the most expensive transport project in the world per mile at an eye watering, £125 million per mile. It is not exactly benefitting the hard working taxpayers or the environment.
