What? Coventry City Council wasting money on a pointless project? Surely not!

Coventry's streets are mainly too narrow to cope with these, unless we're going to see another round of car bashing and restrictions?
Trams are inflexible, small buses are far more useful, but you'll not educate O'Boyle.
Certainly, a waste of money (IMO) but it's not coming out of O'Boyle's pocket, is it? Yet another vanity project that most of the citizens will not benefit from.
Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.
The scheme's reared its head again: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan...shire-60001340
The mind truly boggles!

£111 million's being chucked at the 'Sustainable Transport' project: https://coventryobserver.co.uk/news/...ble-transport/
Christ on a bike, O'Boyle again!
Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.
Looks like the government's going to chusk £115m at Coventry for 'green' transport. The council's certainly handy with the begging bowl: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan...shire-62594611
Meanwhile, Coventry is losing shops like there's no tomorrow. These 'trams' are aimed at visitors to the city, pray tell us O'Boyle, what there is going to be left to see, or why people would want to visit?

Test rails have been set up: https://www.coventryobserver.co.uk/n...k-constructed/
A tram was on display at the weekend: https://www.coventryobserver.co.uk/n...ry-light-rail/
I truly fear for the future of this city.
Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.
A test's been complered. We can all imagine what'll happen Coventry City Council get it's hands on them: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan...shire-67297891
Another vanity project that is going to cost the citizens of the city. Who stands to benefit? Follow the money!
Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.
The scheme seems to be coming off the rails: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan...shire-68544171
O'Boyle is an idiot!
Embarking on a project like this without all the finances in place is madness. Costs will escalate just as they did with HS2 and it won't be finished. Trams are inflexible whereas small buses can be adapted to local circumstances and problems.
But who on earth is going to take a tram when it's an easy, quick, and reasonably pleasant walk?
Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.
The government's deciding whether to providing funding for the next stage. With the way Labour seems to be running things, I'm seeing a 'No' coming over the horizon: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2yj2lv0n1o
