Provide 30 W class trams upgraded to W8 configuration with ongoing funding and money for their upkeep. Maintain the City Circle as it is with 12 W class trams and provide others to another dedicated route through public consultation.

The issue

W class trams are to Melbourne as the Cable car is to San Francisco! San Francisco has its cable cars unchallenged by economic rationalism, so let Melbourne continue to have its W class trams! We want the government to commit to keeping 30 W class trams. The public don't want W class trams reduced in number and only going one way on the City Circle, they want their numbers increased and used on another route! http://m.theage.com.au/victoria/iconic-wclass-trams-to-be-slashed-in-city-circle-revamp-plan-20150313-143fgg.html
