Is this deep green or shallow green or neither?

  • Congested main roads near or alongside existing but unused railway lines.
  • Popular Stourbridge Junction but its second mainline railway - once as equally important as the one in use - is not being used fully.
  • Instead, people pile into their cars and add to the deepening Climate Emergency and congested roads.
  • Why not use existing transport infrastructure for their design purpose?
  • Why not get the existing public transport at least as good as that on the mainland of Europe?
  • Would 150 miles of tramways simply make for a more complicated and slower public transport journey - with three modes instead of two?
  • The tram is like a "bus on rails" and, therefore, accelerates the Climate Emergency with all the concrete and steel having to be used, when both are very high in greenhouse gas emissions from their manufacture.
