It’s so depressing. Our city in Australia had such a good robust tram network and they ripped it all out because they hired an American urban planner that promoted cars is the future. Now instead we have a long car tunnel named after the Lord Mayor that was responsible for it.
Brisbane! Largest act of public vandalism in history, pretty sure it was the largest tram network in the southern hemisphere
On a side note: I'm always amused by grand claims that get ever more specific.
"the largest in the southern hemisphere's third biggest metropolis that has a giant guitar with at least three strings and a large pineapple"
