Sorry, another tram photo. No more for a wee while, I promise.

  1. Great photo - great message!

    It was time for change. Opinions as well as concepts, to revitalize our cities. So congratulations to our mall developers, that they will no longer knowing their customers just as car-drivers and finally exepting, that users of public transport are important the same way for their business.

    The world`s most spectacular integration of tramway in a shopping centre is the best proof
    for.

    A "Happy New Year" to the future!

  2. Thanks for your comment, Robert. We Aucklanders have fingers crossed for a return of something like a tram system to Downtown Auckland, connecting with new waterfront revitalisation developments and parks. The Christchurch tram loop, though, is a wonderful thing.

    I see that LRTC drew up a plan for light rail in Auckland back in 1989? What a pity it didn't go ahead, then.
