Train to Peguera: Vision with a Timetable or Just Election Rhetoric?

Answer

Could a new rail link really help reduce traffic on Mallorca?

It could help, especially if it gives commuters and tourism workers a reliable alternative to driving. But a rail line only eases congestion if it is well connected to buses, taxis and local stops, and if people can actually use it for daily trips. Without that integration, it may not take enough cars off the road.
