I think cities need many modes of transit. Starting with rail, moving to buses, bicycles and taxi cabs as well.

I'd like to see trams, with flat boarding platforms, being used to move more cargo. No reason someone with a dolly, and 8 boxes on it, can't use public transit. This would cut the cost of hauling things around. I can imagine farmers transporting things to neighborhood farmers markets using some form of train/tram combo.
