It is intended to have details of public transport,
especially light rail & tramway, developments in the Bristol
Area on this page. The Bristol Area covers Bristol; S. Gloucestershire;
Gloucestershire; North Somerset; Bath & N.E. Somerset; Somerset; Wiltshire
and Gwent.
It is also intended to have pictures & comments
on systems that I have visited. Coming soon:
Note: All opinions expressed
on these pages are my own and not necessarily those of the LRTA.
