Sounds good to me, forget this PRT business. Perhaps the Harriet Streetcar line could extend yet again to start the rebuilding of an effective, multi-modal transportation system.
Lots of the componants of the old lines are scattered about the city including power poles (city lot at Plymouth and 1st street North) and tracks (under half the old routes in NE alone). Let's recycle. Driving to airport last Thursday I noticed the the LRT power lines seem very overbuilt if not ugly. Hopefully this project can utilize the simple pole and wire system that worked so long ago, it's much less intrusive.
