Metro Area Express (MAX) is a proposed light rail network for Perth, Western Australia. , the MAX network is scheduled to open in 2022. ==Background== Perth's original tramway network, which linked the Perth CBD with many of Perth's inner suburbs, was in operation between the end of the nineteenth century and 1958. Since the start of 2007, there have been four proposals for the reintroduction of trams to the Perth metropolitan area, in the form of light rail. At least two of the proposals have been the subject of a detailed feasibility study. In September 2012, the Government of Western Australia announced plans for a new Perth network, to be known as ''Metro Area Express'' (MAX).〔 Construction of the first stage was originally scheduled to begin in 2016, and be completed by the end of 2018.〔 However, in December 2013 the government announced the project would be deferred for three years. Under the new timeframe the MAX network will open in 2022.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About the Project – Anticipated timeline )〕 In April 2014, incoming transport minister Dean Nalder stated the government would investigate splitting the project into two parts, to allow an earlier start to be made on construction with priority given to the Balga - CBD section. As of March 2015, the government is considering using buses to implement the MAX route instead of light rail. The cost would be approximately 50% less than a light rail system.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Metro Area Express (Perth)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
