Are you referring to LRT, or any alternative-mode-of-transport that
isn't a car or a bus?

I dont think any orginization is entering into stuff like the Northstar
project without ample research pointing to a real viability and benefit.
I would be interested if you can cite specific examples where:

A) a proposal forces people to use their form of transport that does not
come from the 'they are taking our road money' line of thought.
B) a proposal that doesn't have some sort of current parallel with a
specific amount of mass transit users in a overloaded condition at some
time during the day. (To the point where an articulated bus doesn't meet
demand)
