However, much less expensive for yourselves if you keep the WBHE tram on the railway to connect with the national railway network at Stourbridge Jct. What a help that would be, and you would get more passengers on the tram with an electric bus service (or reinstated monorail) bringing passengers from the Waterfront tram stop to the Merry Hill shops. Map, here, shows the missing link between the Waterfront offices next to Round Oak Rail on the railway, and Stourbridge Jct. However, there is a mistake on the Railfuture map. You must swap the two tram stops of 'Merry Hill' and 'Waterfront', to be correct:
In preparation for both of us to meet on the 8 Feb (thanks), may I ask if an officer might find out why the Merry Hill monorail only lasted from 1990 to 1993, I believe were the dates, before in use for many years, subsequently in Queensland, Australia? Is it still in use?
FURTHER QUESTIONS
- Why was the monorail never connected to the railway at the Waterfront/Round Oak Rail terminal with the railway having its trains back then? It fell 400 metres short. Map:
- Why was the railway not re-opened for passenger use then?
- Therefore, 30 years of added road congestion and air pollution?
- Did Centro refuse to co-operate with the Richardson brothers because Centro/PTA wanted the tram, instead?
- The Metro tram going to Merry Hill was born in 1981. Is that correct?
- Or, what exactly, is the truth over the coming of the monorail and then its all too quick demise?
- May I show you the monorail station in the roof of the shopping centre with its still working lift down to the stores?
- If you keep the Dudley Tram on the railway to connect with the national railway network, would it get more passengers if you provided an electric bus from the tram stop at Waterfront/Round Oak into the bus station?
- Can you use the money saved to give Fare-Free Public Transport to encourage modal shift?
- Is this suggestion any good?
