Default West London Tram to go ahead

It'd certainly be interesting to see which routes they can and can't be
used on. I would guess that the twisty bit of route 6 through Osbaldwick
will be problematic for them!

Not sure what the next routes planned for ftr are - 1, 3 or 5 would seem
to be the logical next choices.

through traffic - most of York's bus routes are radial, serving two
entirely different areas on opposite sides of the town. Osbaldwick and
Clifton Moor have relatively little in common; neither do Acomb and
Heslington (4) or Poppleton and Stamford Bridge (10). First could have a
much more reliable schedule if they split these routes in town.
