Epping-Ongar news?
In article , Dave
writes Clive D. W. Feather writes [1] The only place I can see guided bus technology being of use is in bus *stations*, to be honest, for ensuring flush boarding and coping with often restricted areas. Apparently it works well in Adelaide because of the layout of things: [...] I was in Adelaide earlier this year and had no idea they have guided busways. If I'd known, I'd have had a look - as I've never seen one before. Are they what Adelaide Metro call the 'O-Bahn Bus Routes'? Yes, from the City Centre to Tea Tree Plaza. City Centre penetration isn't brilliant and signposting and publicity for public transport was, I thought, worse in Adelaide than any other Australian city I've ever visited. (It would help if the Glenelg trams ran further North to connect with more other city transport, including the O-Bahn to Tea Tree Plaza. Apparently they once did.) I did have a few rides on the 1920s Glenelg tram (not a museum piece, but a working part of the city's transport network). Yes, great, isn't it? ;-) -- Ian Jelf, MITG, Birmingham, UK Registered "Blue Badge" Tourist Guide for London & the Heart of England http://www.bluebadge.demon.co.uk |
