This was objected to by local residents. Of course we see time and time again that we allow the minor issues of a few affect major infrastructure projects all over the Country. We will always have third rate infrastructure until this changes.

Well, apart from the crash with the bus on O'Connell St but the driver was acquitted on direction of the judge due to a degree of conflict in evidence

If you're on the luas in town the driver usually keeps sounding the bell all the time, because of rampant jaywalking. Often they don't even look right or left it's quite a sight.
People are so used to jaywalking and the cars accommodating them that they forget the luas cannot brake on the spot. |

I saw a tram painted yellow the other day as part of an advertising campaign. It was very visible but actually looked tidy and quite sharp. In Berlin all of the public transport vehicles are painted a similar colour and they look perfectly elegant. It could be a good idea for Dublin.

The green line was designed to be upgraded to a metro system, with wider reinforced tracks, but then NIMBYism happened.

You know that would mean having to repaint every tram every time it crosses the city from green to your yellow

There is nothing as easy to avoid getting run over by as a large vehicle which weighs scores of tons, and does not approach from unexpected directions on unexpected paths. If you can't see the rail lines under your feet, you're probably not going to notice a yellow vehicle 60 feet away and closing.
