>>1558578Currently the circular bus line 550 is being converted into light rail.
The city long had the issue of buses mostly traveling in and out of the city center, making even relatively short journeys in the suburbs take a pointlessly long detour. The JOKERI trunk line was originally designed to be implemented as semi-circular light rail line to connect the city laterally, but I guess some whiner complained enough about the costs to push through a bus-based setup. Despite simulations and projections being clear about buses not having sufficient capacity for expected ridership, and that the buses would end up swamped and congested. Which of course happened.
Now, a decade later, they're setting up the light rail system, and it's progressing well enough. Should be done by 2024.
