Going so badly over-budget (and missing important ridership areas) has really hurt the return on investment. Incredibly, the document actually says Stage 1's benefit:cost ratio is pretty good for LRT projects, so I'm wondering if transit planners have lost their way in recent years.
I'd say they're doing a lot of reaching on the benefits. If this is their best case to proceed then we're in deep trouble.
