I must disagree with you concerning your edit of Tramway de Nice, the battery power supply was chosen by the old mayor as it would avoid putting wires all the way across place Masséna. This same mayor decided that the carnival floats would no longer parade on place Masséna, so the main reason is not the carnival. Moreover, if one follows your argument the place Garibaldi would have been electrified traditionally (ie. with wires) as the floats never and have never gone there. At last year's election, a new mayor was elected, and he took the decision to reverse the old mayor's decision and the floats once more paraded on the Place Masséna. However, this required a few changes such as removing many posts to allow the floats to pass threw and the stands to be built. The place Masséna was therefore not designed with the Carnival in mind.
