Yarra Trams’ own figures show trams spend an average of 17% of travel time waiting at traffic lights. PTUA figures show on some sections of road, it can be up to 30%.
Lack of tram priority wastes passengers’ time, wastes resources (trams and drivers), leads to less frequent services, and leads to more overcrowding.
Help our campaign for better public transport. Join the PTUA now. We rely entirely on member funding and enthusiastic volunteers to operate.
