This site is an anti-tram site which instead promotes trolley buses.
However, I have never seen how, as far as a passenger is concerned, a
trolleybus can be any better than an ordinary bus. Trams have been
shown to solve transport problems in ways that buses can't. This is
because of their layout, being effectively a versatile train. A bus is
a bus is a bus, no matter what its power source.

The site is not anti tram in general but regards the Uxbridge Road
corridor as being totally unsuitable for a tramway.


And it will regard any other road as "unsuitable" if someone proposes to
build a tramway there.
