Avert your eyes, Michael...

Tones,

Hook turns are being trialled in Clarendon St. South Melbourne with a view to extending their use to other suburbs in an effort to make the tram system less impeeded by traffic.

As silly as they may sound, I find hook turns work pretty well. Used to work in a building on the cnr of Elizabeth and La Trobe, looking out over the intersection. Was always fun to spot the out-of-towner who didn't know how it worked.

Stuart.
