quote:A number of cities have implemented (fairly recently) light rail that intermingles with the traffic. Dallas has done an excellent job with it. They are quiet, efficient and through the downtown area, run right next to the cars. The key is having proper park and ride locations as well as having the train run right by the larger employers and shopping areas.
