The Mayor of Bristol has slammed opposition councillors and the Metro Mayor Dan Norris, saying their ‘lack of ambition is staggering’ because they have said a mass transit ‘underground’ system for Bristol will never happen. Marvin Rees said he remains committed to creating a fresh new ‘mass transit system’ which would involve an underground metro rail system, even though almost every other politician in the city isn’t backing the idea.
Earlier this week, the West of England metro mayor Dan Norris who, like Mr Rees, is a Labour Party politician, was asked if he thought an underground would ever happen in Bristol and he said simply ‘no’.
