In addition to replacing their entire diesel bus fleet, they have built a light rail around the city. It is overhead electric powered. When I was last here a little over a year ago - during the pandemic - they were just breaking ground. It is now operational and goes by my location about every 15 minutes.

I also noticed a few people taking advantage of the Light Rail being empty by riding their bicycles in it - seems a tad scary to me, but they didn't have to dodge cars as much, I guess.

They are making massive infrastructure improvements.
