There was much controversy during the planning and building of the Luton-Dunstable Busway; some thought it should have been re-built as a light railway. Around the same time the Cambridge Busway was built. Are either, and/or both, considered now as successful; were the initial cost overruns justified by the convenience to the populace, and the reduction in traffic on local roads? Are the ridership numbers seen as justifying the use of busses and busway, as opposed to light rail? Are more busways now under consideration in the UK? Curious Sam
