What wouldn't the average motorist myself included give to commute to work every day on such a local system instead of the head banging traffic chaos every evening .

You couldn't make it up could you .

Ad forgotten aar many market stalls there were on Market Hill.

When "levelling up" is complete by the end of March Barnsley will have a brand new frequent tram system gliding quietly across the Barnsley region following the old rail routes linking all the old stations.
