ION Phase 2 - Cambridge's Light Rail Transit

[tomh009]

And I'm not suggesting they are. I'm taking issue with the dismissive attitudes here. On this page alone we've gone from "Let's get the best route built" to "Screw 'em, let's send it to Elmira instead."

If you re-check my post, I think you will find out that that's not what I said.

But I did say that it makes no sense to build an (expensive) LRT and then avoid all urban areas on the route.  There is simply little value in doing that, it would be the same as running an LRT to Elmira, through the countryside (where there are no NIMBYs but no riders, either).

Do you think running LRT through industrial areas is a good idea?
