it took 15 years and $33.7 million wasted for Fort Lauderdale to figure out that streetcars aren't going to happen, as the projected costs kept increasing

the original project cost was $142 million, the most recent and rejected bids were for around 193 million, and the projected cost over runs would add to the total, now an estimated $226

Seem ridiculous? 200 million plus or minus 10 perent, to put in street cars... for 3 miles of track.
