This stretch is being doubled, started some weeks back, but much work

It always worked well as a single track; but I suppose this will speed up the service.

Surely it allows a more frequent service, rather than reduced journey
times.

It will also mean that when trams deviate from the timetable the
effects on other trams won't be so bad and so delays will be reduced and
it'll be easier to get back to normal.

I remember when computers were frustrating because they did
exactly what you told them to. That seems kinda quaint now.
