Description |
A news item that was broadcast as part of the BBC Breakfast News on BBC1 on 10 May 1991. This news item is about the difficulties securing public funding for Light Rapid Transport systems in the UK using the problems that Manchester experienced in securing funding for the Metrolink system as an example. We see tracks being laid in Manchester City Centre and we see the LRT system in Zurich in operation. We hear from Tony Young, Principal Planning Officer at GM Transport, Don Kenny, Commercial Director of GMML and Derek Palmer, Head of Transport Policy at CBI, about the issues with funding. |
