Why not?
They could do it in three steps.
1. Reserve the left-most lane for buses, using center island platforms for stations. This would require doors placed on the left side of buses. Shouldn't be too hard to do.
2. Replace the fossil fuel buses with electric trolley buses.
3. Gradually lay track and replace the trolley buses with street cars similar to those used by the city of Portland Oregon.
It might take a couple decades, but in the end Orange County would be far better off.
The big problem with people living in Southern California is they lack vision.
Why can't we be the first in transit?
