The way I wrote it down is: the bridge commission is there to get people across the harbour how ever they want outside of boat or plane. A lot of these people use cars. Metro Transit is of the same game, only across the city, and in buses or ferries, not cars. Metro Transit does the same thing as the bridges, only in boats, and not cars. So why not give Metro Transit the bridges so there can be more buses than cars.

We need to look seriously at buying more articulated buses for mainly our heavy link routes, and taking the rest and putting them into regular mass routes to compensate for lack or room. 10 Articulated Link buses would make a huge impact on both systems. The money coming in from the bridges, would seriously improve the chances of improving the Link system, and ferry services fast. Convert our reg route Art. buses for Link service two. Ideally, electrifying the Link routes would be key. If they threw that into the deal of a third bridge, then yea, I'd probably be okay with the idea.
