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:
“How have I been able to live so long outside Nature without identifying myself with it? Everything lives, moves, everything corresponds; the magnetic rays, emanating either from myself or from others, cross the limitless chain of created things unimpeded; it is a transparent network that covers the world, and its slender threads communicate themselves by degrees to the planets and stars. Captive now upon earth, I commune with the chorus of the stars who share in my joys and sorrows.”
—Gérard De Nerval (1808–1855)
