Dozens of people have responded to plans for a light rail system that would connect parts of Liverpool city centre.
Mayor Joe Anderson spoke about how the system would include a network that runs between Lime Street, Paddington Village and the Knowledge Quarter - but not everyone is convinced.
Taking to Twitter and Facebook to discuss the plans , many people stated that the city should be focusing on better transport links between the airport and stadiums, not the universities.
While a number of others complained that these same plans had been suggested multiple times before.
Some however, were enthusiastic about a new transport network upgrading the city.
On Facebook , Neil Pye said: "The construction of a light railway or tram system between the centre of Liverpool and the airport is long overdue.
"Other major cities have them and why not Liverpool."
Jackie Kewn said: "Could have had a fab tram system if they had done it right. Start with a line from airport to city centre.
"Then work out from city centre to other areas of the city, instead of starting in Kirkby.
"I have travelled to many European cities - they all seem to have managed great transport systems. Don't know why we can't."
Others made a number of suggestions that they believe would be more necessary in Liverpool.
Dave Callister said: "Surely a rail link to and from the airport to the city centre would be more beneficial?"
Some suggested a rail link to Anfield would allow the stadium there to hold greater numbers of fans. Jonathan Poulter also said: "Lime Street to Anfield needs to be a priority so Liverpool can expand past 70,000."
One ECHO reader even further supported the idea for an overhead railway system.
Karl Duvall said: "The city needs a brand new infrastructure model that serves the whole city.
"It needs a tram, or dare I say overhead railway tram system that links Lime Street to the Knowledge Quarter, to the Baltic Triangle, to the Albert Dock, Pier Head, out toward Liverpool waters, and up to Bramley Moore Dock.
"If the stadium is built that's an additional 50-60k people every other week trying to get from one end of the M62 right across the city, not to mention all of the other footfall traffic.
"We should be taking more of a lead from Manchester [and] go one further and ban all non-commercial vehicles form the city centre itself.
"Make it a greener safer city for people to move around.
"Dedicated cycle routes, linking the whole city with an electric tram system."
Speaking after a regeneration committee meeting this week, Mayor Anderson said the light rail plan is moving forward.
He said: "It's all to do with the Knowledge Quarter, we have been looking at some of these vehicles that don't need rail to run.
"These are electric vehicles that are not fixed to a track.
"It would be look from connect Lime Street to the Universities and Paddington Village along Brownlow Hill.
"Cycle lanes are really important but public transport is too - and finding new ways to move people around the city centre that doesn't involve cars.
"We are working with the universities, the Knowledge Quarter and Merseytravel to look at clean, green and quiet light transit options."
Almost 1,000 people voted in a poll on the ECHO website about whether they think Liverpool would ever get a light rail system.
Of the 971 people who voted, 137 thought it would, 193 hoped it would, 190 stated that they had "heard it all before", and a whopping 451 people said "no", they didn't think it would ever happen.
