Sandhills station

Where would you run it from? Where would the Trams park up overnight? The easy part is putting in the straight lengths of tram tracks, but its the stations that are the problem as they take up more room. And the cost of the project. Will local folks be happy with millions being spent on a tram system to any area that is not fully developed, while there seems to be a lot of problems on the existing Merseyrail network? Maybe the crowd leading the dockside development would pay for a good chunk of the cost as it would improve the access to the area they`re looking to develop.

It should be something versatile, there are trams than can run on both traditional tram tracks and train tracks, then they could build off the existing train network, add in a tram track along the dock road from the new stadium down to Brunswick, where it could use the train tracks, then build tram tracks from somewhere near South Parkway to the airport. It would take years to do and a big investment, but its the type of infrastructure that can have a positive impact on the overall city.
