Metro Golf Cars
Big crowds all at one time? No problem. Mid-size and small-size trams can be the answer. With the cost of operating a bus or van steadily increasing, alternatives are worth considering. The appeal of the tram has many attributes that make it favorable to operate in a campus-type environment.
* Passengers and operators love the space and open-air feel
* Trams accommodate quick loading and off-loading.
* They can easily be adapted to accommodate wheelchairs transport without the person ever getting out of the chair.
In consideration of the cost vs. benefit, recurring cost such as auto insurance, inspection and state registration fees can be avoided in most states when using off road trams.
