    Capital Line LRT

    Higher frequency on the 747 bus route would go a long way to alleviate that anxiety. Even 30 minutes is not frequent enough. Can't see LRT being justified if the ridership doesn't demand higher frequency than that.

    Great for the future LRT stop

    Edmonton International Airport (EIA/YEG)

    StatsCan uses data from CATSA. The reports from the airlines and airports take longer, which is why airports usually report a couple of months after the fact -- or several months if you're YEG.

    Edmonton International Airport (EIA/YEG)

    The number of screened passengers at YEG was down slightly in February compared to February 2025, due to the collapse of U.S. (-7,859 passengers, -19.5%) and international (-3,173, -8.8%) traffic, which was not fully offset by the increase in domestic passengers (+9,106, +5.3%). The data are...

    Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) in Edmonton

    I think the timelines are ridiculous too, but reading the reporting, it seems the garage is the major issue. If it is a glorified express bus with some bus lanes and transit priority, I'm ok with that. When looking at the route report cards posted earlier, the 110X is quite well used (covering...

    Alberta Politics

    If you read the report, central Edmonton is losing a riding because it's not growing as fast as other areas. Fair enough. But the commission also lists the ridings' easy access to the Legislature by car, LRT, or on foot as justifications for only having 5 ridings in the area around the Leg.

    The Riverhawks

    The Vancouver Canadians created a bike valet space which removes the fear of having your bike stolen. It's quite well used

    Valley Line LRT | TransEd/Marigold | City of Edmonton

    That was thought about, debated, and decided before the VLSE was built. Heck, the thinking heavily influenced the design of the Metro Line North of 105 Ave.

    That is a good op-ed!

    Connect Centre | 56.3m | 16s | ONE Properties | DIALOG

    Wow I never thought 35 storeys would look short

    ETS Bus and General Transit Improvements

    Having lived in both cities (and loved both), I've always thought Edmonton and Quebec City should cooperate and share information far more than they do.

    Interesting division of games

    Edmonton and area statues

    The artist who did the statue is my former brother-in-law and both Moranis and Thomas were heavily involved in the shaping of their likenesses. Would still love to see them participate in an unveiling.

    Edmonton and area statues

    Looks like they need a shower, eh?

    Varsity sports

    No word how they're going to transport students to games. Shuttle service, perhaps?
