i must say that this makes me laugh ... 200 people capacity buses, u mean trains dont you?

30 minutes is still too much. An efficient public transport should still be avaiable.

Plasma screens in buses, haha.

I also do not believe in compolsory gender segregation, it creates a more divided community and it also does not sound practical

I think what should be done in tandem with road works is a metro system.

Qatar is planning in building new swathes of Doha from Scratch and many are nothing but sand right now, so it would be prudent planning to do so now b4 it has to be done later.

This should be given a priority to West Bay, with a couple of main stations and then have airconditioned, air and clean halls to other buildings as there are so many so close together.

But offcourse it will not be done, becasue it needs to be proposed by some company, given go ahead for inception, planning, design, tender for construction and then maybe start doing it, which even if it all started today nothing essential would happen for 5 years.

I think trains and largely underground trains (for Doha at least would be much better) It seems more feasible and would not add traffic and would allow for someone to go from Al Saad Stadium to go to a line at Grand Hamad (lets keep it as it is w/ buses) and then change over to a West Bay Line to go to City Centre) and will not take 75-100 minutes as it currently does with buses and will not change dramatically.

This is the case with buses, becvause they largely avoid main roads and do not go through high volume traffic anyway, but have to go at a steady speed of like 30/40 km/hr. With a train I would imagine this can be done in 20 minutes.
