Rejected petition Consider plans for an edinburgh underground metro system

An underground system in edinburgh would benefit the area dramatically by increasing tourism to other areas in the city. It would also reduce the amount of busses around the city and there for reduce pollution. Not sure if this is a bit far fetched but it’s worth a try.
