In the board report are some progress pictures of the Loyola Streetcar Line (beginning on page 29) and followed by a Rampart Streetcar Line timetable for 2013 (page 37). It looks like it will be put to bid sometime this summer!
Question: I've heard some locals mention that they prefer bus service to Rampart instead of streetcars, because streetcars are slower, and riders coming from the 9th Ward will have to transfer at the beginning of the streetcar line.
However, the development/density of the areas serviced by streetcars could go up significantly, making people closer to their destination anyway.
Should we be fighting for it or against it?
