Trolley / Tram on Scenic 30A

People won't put up money for a simple trolley service much less a fancy train! I don't believe there is room to build a train either. Small place 30A! I just know we need some sort of service other than a few taxis that you have to wait forever for during tourist season as well as them being expensive.

The train in St Aug as I recall is just a wheeled trolley with 2 cars.

If you think you have to wait forever during tourist season, wait till you see what this does to traffic!!! I have a difficult time now getting where I need to go and this will be a nightmare on 30-A!
 
Sydney, Australia, has a FREE central business district bus that runs every 10 minutes. You can get to most attractions from that bus. We used it a lot. Saved money on taxis.

A trolley in SoWal sounds like a good idea. One question I have is where would the stops be so the trolleys could pull over so as not to block traffic. :scratch:
 
On second thought, why doesn't everyone who is physically able just ride bikes? It's great exercise. I personally can't bike due to a torn meniscus in my left knew from too much running, but my guess is that only a small percentage of people contributing to traffic are unable to ride a bike.

What do you think about my new theory?

It depends on where you want to go. If you want to go a far distance by the time you get there you'll be exhausted and certainly won't want to ride the bike back. Especially if you have a few drinks!!

I think that it is a great idea unless you have been drinking, are traveling a considerable distance, don't want to sweat through your clothes, have a limited time frame, it is dark out, it is raining, you are tired.......

Bikes are a great way to get from A to B, but are very limited. A shuttle is an easy peasy, no skill required solution.
