Rather than close a lot of city streets to traffic for the light rail, elevate it on to the monorail track, and run it above the city traffic.

Funny thing about the Monorail is, it was just starting to become popular and profitable when the corrupt NSW Gladyshow (she was transport minister at the time) decided to get rid of it.
Tasmania wanted to buy it but, out of spite NSW just scrapped all of it.

Two derelict stations still remain one either side of the Historic Pyrmont bridge, dumb thing is they could have left the elevated section intact over the bridge built entry ramps on both sides and had a great elevated cycleway crossing without all the current problems going on between city commuting cyclists / pedestrians and still had a shaded covering for walker crossing the bridge in summer.
The two station would also be good spots to convert to cafe /bicycle shop for previously mentioned cyclists.
