tl;dw they made some sensible cost cutting measures to create a nice tram system cheaply in a small city.

    Top speed is 70 km/h but average speed is 28 km/h. That’s probably better than buses, but sounds a bit slow. Given the number of stops and turns it’s not surprising. In a city center only subways go faster, and they’re much more expensive, so a tramway might be a decent compromise.
