At last weekend's public meeting, somebody tried to make this point by asking for a show of hands "How many of you intend to use this if they build it?"
An impressive number of hands shot up. It kinda shut him down on that point.
The more balanced way of saying it might be - these folks have no intention of giving up their cars, so road quality matters to them (most). It's also true that they have very poor understanding of what is being proposed. But I wonder why that's news to City staff. It wouldn't hurt for their slide deck to have one or two slides about why LRT might be different than people think.
