Tram Network
Lothian Buses will be fully integrated with the forthcoming Edinburgh tram network, with both enterprises being owned by the council. Lothian services will interchange with the trams at various strategic locations. The now closed guided busway element of Fastlink will form part of phase 1a of the tram permanent way, replacing the busway. Early artists impressions of the trams show them in the same "harlequin" livery used on new Lothian buses. As a consequence of the trams, the fleet will be reduced in size by 19 buses.

Famous quotes containing the word network:
“A culture may be conceived as a network of beliefs and purposes in which any string in the net pulls and is pulled by the others, thus perpetually changing the configuration of the whole. If the cultural element called morals takes on a new shape, we must ask what other strings have pulled it out of line. It cannot be one solitary string, nor even the strings nearby, for the network is three-dimensional at least.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
