@danielbowen I noticed that sign at Flinders St the other day. No low floors among the 70, 75 or City Circle trams, of course. I think every other route through the city would have at least one low-floor service.

@timrichards I think you're right, every CBD street now has some low-floor services, apart from Flinders Street (except during special events) and the short segment of Spring St that's only served by the City Circle.

@danielbowen On another matter, it's tragic that the City Circle is only running clockwise now. Temporary or permanent, do you think?

@timrichards Unfortunately I suspect it’s permanent. I don’t think Yarra Trams is very keen on it.

@danielbowen Annoying. So if you're at, say, Russell Street and want to go to Queen Street you have to go all the way round the circle. Not very practical.

@timrichards Isn’t that covered by the 70/75 or 30, depending on which street you’re on?

timrichards, 28 days ago

@danielbowen True. Does mean fewer options, especially on La Trobe Street westbound. Effectively a drop in frequency there.
