Omaha Streetcars, dammit

So Omaha has been bandying about the idea of installing streetcars. I would love this. If it runs on rails, then I'm excited. Of course, the mayor wants to form a "task force" to study economic costs and benefits, blah blah blah, for $200,000+. I'll give you my ideas for free. Here's what I would do if mayor and the federal government wrote me a check (Like they did for our worthless but pretty pedestrian bridge).

Here's the map I made with Google maps with the routes I think would be best: Self-proposed Streetcar Routes.

Let me know what you think in the comments. Collaborating on the map could be fun.

Peace
