Opposition to the West London Tram steps up
On 24 Jan, 12:14, "Tim Roll-Pickering" wrote: The Tram is also unpopular; a survey conducted by Ipsos MORI on behalf of Transport for London showed a majority of residents opposed the scheme. 53% do not believe they would derive any benefit at all from the Tram. So in other words 47% (almost half the people surveyed) believe they will. That to me sounds a lot higher than for most public transport schemes. But presumably if you're being so black and white about it , if it suddenly changed to 51% you'd be all for it would you?

It is unpopular with residents and is likely to leave Umm , am I missing something or isn't the tram FOR commuters? Why would they all still need to be driving once its built? Uxbridge Road and Wood Lane. They will be unveiling a banner entitled "West London Says No". Should that read "53% of west london say they're not sure". 3. The £315 figure is based on a £1bn estimate for the build cost, this is Amazing what numbers you can come up with if you pick a few at random and multiply them. Where exactly is the cost breakdown for this huge sum please? Declaration of War Against the West London Tram Who thought that slogan up , some from ealing college student union? B2003 |
