Letter: Trams flaws

It seems the tram project is now to be curtailed, and much of the chaos will have been for nothing. This bears all the hallmarks of a public body deciding on something which is unnecessary, is handled incompetently, runs years late, and is many times over budget.

I'm glad I no longer live in Edinburgh, and I pity those who still do. As usual, the taxpayer will foot the bill and no-one will be fired.
