You know all those acreages south of Wye Road in Strathcona county? That’s basically what an average American suburb looks like. Way less dense, and way fewer commercial areas interspersed throughout. Comparing US suburbs to Canadians suburbs is like comparing all that country residential area...

True, but if, for the same amount of money, the alternative alignment hits Northgate and the Town Center area of Griesbach with all the shops, it might be worth it.

Wait, are you not able to see the map I made through the link?

I guess if the LRT extension to Castle Downs is shelved for a while, it could give us the opportunity to re-evaluate the route. What if we sent it east along Yellowhead Trail and then up 97th Street? Then, it could cross a narrower freight rail ROW with a smaller bridge, and stop at Northgate...

Remember, folks, an election is coming up. Let's make this a key issue for the candidates.

The LRT tunnel shouldn’t be a problem. It runs one block west under 110th Street.

If they finish all the segments by September, would they be able to convert the roadways into their final configuration by the end of this construction season, even if they still have to lay the rails and catenary on the guideway afterwards?

Does this account for the many square kilometres of undeveloped farmland within city limits or only the urbanized area?

Yeah, I drove along that stretch of that stretch of the line on Monday and it’s f*cked. Just about everything is boarded up or an empty pit or a pawn/vape/liquor store.

Ooh this would be a fun bet. I’m leaning more towards University Station still being busier because the Capital Line would be better at attracting commuters because it’s fast.

I was up by my window at 1:30 am and it was glorious!

Ask me nicely with “👉👈🥺” and say “ pwease” and I’ll be your forum nemesis.

Bro, you’re a rich old man in California. I’m sure you’ve got better things to do than namedrop on a development forum.
