    The OBAHN bus in Australia is ONLY in Adelaide South Australia. The OBahn bus route is lovely and parts of the route are very scenic. ONLY a few BUS NUMBERS will get you on an OBahn route bus. The trip starts in Grenfell street - for example bus 556 at 8:48 am from Stop H1 Grenfell St - North side - starts off on the road then swiftly slips onto the Obahn track and takes you out to St Agnes. I love it. The trip is worth the fun from Adelaide and then out to St Agnes and back to Adelaide. I WISH there was a route from Adelaide to Victor Harbour via an OBahn (BUT there is not) as it would save so much time and be fun.

    So many people fail to see how bad this system is. Originally was to be either a train or tram. Tram was chosen to save money, but then... there was an election. The new Liberal government could not just do what Labor had set up, and they did not want to spend more on a train, even though that was always the best option. The O-Bahn cost a lot to build, but carries much fewer passengers. As you watch this video, you may notice the track is fenced off because the huge (ugly) concrete track is too high for people to cross, unlike railways. People regularly drive cars onto the track and fall into the center. Then the track is closed till a crane comes to remove the offending vehicle, meaning the busses have to take the roads (slow). It really is minimum result for maximum cost, which is why this is the only one of its type left in the world.

    • @willausterman3104
      @willausterman3104 14 дней назад

      So much wrong here. It was chosen as it was more versatile, cheaper, and easier to implement. The grades are too steep to make heavy rail effective, and the versatility this offers over any rail option options is great. Rail would also have been far more intrusive to existing infrastructure. Cars ignoring the warnings is a minus, but the rate at which they get stuck is comparable to the rate that cars get hit at rail crossings. There was recently a 133-day streak with no incidents that unfortunately just ended. It's also not a one-off. There are currently 3 other guided busways in operation, including the one Adelaide based their design off of in Essen. The O-bahn has been very successful, and you just sound bitter about it!

    • @martythemartian99
      @martythemartian99 14 дней назад

      @@willausterman3104 Sorry but I must reply that so much is wrong here too. It was chosen because of political bias. One party chose tram so the other party had to do something different. Cheaper, yes but it does less. Like using a small car to pull a semi-trailer, it just doesn't work. In the long run it has NOT been cheaper because of all the extra expense. The rear tyres on the articulated busses rub on the concrete track and must be disposed of before the tread is worn. They use more fuel per passenger mile and as such, are far more polluting than all other options. None of the grades are too steep for rail, and you will find most of the arguments against rail and for the O-Bahn can be put down to political cherry picking of certain facts, while ignoring the long term benefits and savings that come from building the right infrastructure from the start. Am I bitter? Maybe, but I am trying to get people to look at future projects with a more critical eye, and not just accept what politicians say, just to get elected.

      0:48 Smaller guide wheels are installed in the front and back of the bus, perpendicular to big wheels. When the bus goes through a guided way, those wheels will roll on kerbs and "push" the bus away from kerbs.
