Looks quite good actually...though the traffic will be massive in the illuminations with it being one lane each way lol

[Jords]

I like the colour before.

[Scarlett.]

The picture isn't from the same area, it's the road that's changed lol

[King Gizzard]

Can't really notice any difference

[King Gizzard]

[Scarlett.]

Lol I be needing a better picture...basically the pavements are now bigger than the roads, and the road is cobbled :p

[Scarlett.]

Added a much better pic

[King Gizzard]

I still don't see much notable difference lol

Really? xD On the top pic there is a massive two land road and tram track, on the bottom is a single lane road and a tram track, lol, plus it's got cobbles and looks sunnier :flower:

Oh, and this monstrosity lmao

You can't tell which bits road and which bits path :( Sadly (going on experience) people who don't know Blackpool will drive straight onto the tracks/path.

[Kerry]

Oh and by experience I mean I live somewhere with a tram system. I don't drive!

[Kerry]

Sheffield

[ILoveTRW]

Piccadily Gardens in Manchester is insane, you have mums throwing prams infront of trams expecting them to stop

[Jords]

Blackpool looks great now im a big fan of the place and it needed a bit of TLC i was there a couple of weeks ago and the golden mile still has all its character and is looking good just need to get that scaffolding off the tower.

driving in sheffield is terrifying if your not used to it the tramlines are in the road you need eyes on stalks to look out for them!

[Kerry]

Terrible in rain. Especially if both sets of tires hit them. The lines take you :shocked: The number of times I've been a passenger and yelled "Get off the lines!!!!!!!" The trick is to drive with one set down the middle (if that makes sense)
