Phoenix light rail is almost completed and will be a great way to get around if it happens to be going where you need to be. With all the trains running we’re all going to have one more thing to watch out for in the streets. I’m not sure what city this light rail video is from, but it’s a good reminder to be aware of your surroundings and where the tracks are located. Don’t become part of Phoenix’s installment of Metro’s Greatest Hits.
Here’s a really cheesy video produced to educate Arizonan’s on safety and the new Phoenix light rail system. I did learn what some of the new signs mean, so you can actually get some good info out of it.

OK, so basically we pay a billion dollars to replace the Red line with a trolley, put up with construction headaches, and interfere with traffic even before it’s in operation. And from what I’ve seen, it won’t get you to your destination much faster than the bus.

Interestingly enough, that top video is kind of fun to watch. People need to pay attention to their surroundings. Here in Phoenix, the new light rail system, (for the most part) travels in it’s own lane, separated from traffic by a 6″ curb. Hopefully, this design will help cut down on accidents. There has already been one minor accident and grand opening isn’t until the 27th.
