Tram propaganda at the airport
Not sure who will be convinced by this message. Tram works have wrecked various parts of Edinburgh for several years, and still over a year to go before any trams run. Cost so far - £776 million, 50% over the original budget for a shorter route than originally planned.
Quote from the Daily Telegraph [9 March 2013] - 'The tram line's contractors are due to hand over the full nine-mile line to St Andrew Square in the city centre in December, bringing to a conclusion [one] of the most shambolic public infrastructure schemes in modern British history.'
