Opponents of light rail are still ranting. They say monorail would be better, even though if it came right down to it, they'd oppose monorail more because of its increased expense.
Drivers are having a hard time giving up their right to do stupid things. They want to be able to run red lights and cut in front of other vehicles like they always have. However, in this case, the vehicle they're cutting off is too big to mess around with.I've ridden light rail and I think it's great. It's fast and quiet. Getting downtown from Sandy in 35 minutes on TRAX is very good, as fast as it used to be by automobile on the freeway before light rail became necessary.
