Letter: Airport bus fears
In order for the tram to have an income at all, the airport bus - one of the cheapest and most efficient in Europe - will have to be withdrawn because the tram will never be able to compete, particularly if it eventually terminates at the Haymarket. I wonder how loud the local private sector - the tram's greatest proponent, even although it failed to come up with its promised contributions -will squeal, when its tourist and corporate customers opt for Glasgow Airport and Glasgow over Edinburgh because the airport/city centre journey will be the quicker and more painless experience?
