Is the Monorail along Harbor on Disney propery or city property?

I think so too^ Its so hard to know because a million factors play into it. Monorails are more custom, but you only need one beam with side rails while elevated rail is more stock but also requires more infrastructure above ground.

I believe part of the issue in Anaheim would come from retrofitting the beam for more trains. However, for simply the track, the cost is extreme due to the special contruction process. Check out The Monorail Society for some more information on costs of varying projects around the world.

Right, but I was just wondering the cost of the beam and the support alone (basically the cost before trains and right of way.

nothing is cheaper than a bus or a tram

It's much cheaper (not to mention more efficient) to put in a people mover or speed ramp in the same length. [in comparison of a monorail track to a parking structure]

Ditto. Besides, that would probably require ticket takers in the parking structure station to make sure guests already bought their ticket or have their APs to ride the monorail. And more confusion for guests who don't understand the monorail system.
