The plan I saw was to extend one of the Flinders Street routes (70 or
75, or do you mean the 48 in this context?) around the Docklands and
then up Latrobe Street to the 34 terminus at Punt Road. IIRC that was
the 48.
How will the 86 run on this line? By using the rarely used west-to-north
curves at Bourke and Spencer to make a right into Spencer and then a
left into Latrobe? Is there a set of curves northbound on Spencer
turning into Latrobe to do this?
