I sincerely hope it will be an independent investigation , thats what happens elsewhere , too much being swept under the carpet this government has become a joke , we can only hope the next lot will be more transparent and we can stop propping up irresponsible expenditure and gross incompetence , 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanShimmin Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I suppose it could be worth an FOI to see if this is actually "is or may be required in an ongoing investigation/legal proceeding". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanShimmin Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Weirdly they haven't actually uploaded the rejection onto the FOI answers page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should all be happy that it's obviously a very thorough investigation. Just long enough for the next administration to have to deal with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Flint Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 It is being investigated, thoroughly. No conspiracy here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I can't help but think that installing a few planters along the track would help keep speeds down a bit 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilly Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 I was recently driving over tram tracks bottom Harbour road, turned off my radio as approached tracks turned my windows down slightly, was surprised to see tram passing over just in front of me, no warning of horn had been made. I have been warned previously by a relative who said don't rely on the warning horn sounding. It seems they were right LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I beleive the trams have some sort of system that allows visitors to get an audio about the locations as they pass. This must linked via GPS or local sensors to keep it in synch, so why can't the warning sounds happen automatically on the approach to an unsignalled road crossing? The tram driver can't then 'forget', likewise why not a speed limiter for the sections of track where there are problems too? After all it can't be the conditon of the track itself after the years and mililons they've spent replacing it all. A cost that will never ever be recouped.

Do you sound your horn when approaching a unsignalled side road when driving on a main road?. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
