Yes, and what about the electronic displays telling us when the next tram is coming? Why are they 1-sided? Given that they are 1-sided, why aren't they at the very end of the platform so they can be seen along its entire length? Many are in the middle of the platform so half the platform can't see them.
Aside from that, why can't they contain a little more information? The most basic thing which should be included is a clock. And are they connected to the signalling system at all? I find it amusing how often you'll be standing on the platform with the display saying the next tram is "Due" for several minutes with no tram in sight. Once or twice I've seen two trams listed as Due at the same time.
Still, the maps showing the local area are more than IÉ have ever given us.
