Valley Line LRT | ?m | ?s | City of Edmonton

[David A]

I think Edmonton Transit would do well to promote its destinations, either on LRT or at the LRT Stations. The Valley Line could promote the River Valley, Arts District, and eventually West Edmonton Mall. The Capital/Metro Lines could promote the Ice District, Edmonton Elks/Commonwealth Stadium, and the University of Alberta/NAIT.

Given the LRT will go throughout the city (well not so much north yet), it makes sense to promote destinations and events throughout the city. The lines converge downtown, so certainly a significant amount of this promotion could be given to downtown attractions and event, but not all of it.

It must have been a wonderful day to walk across the Tawatina Bridge.

I was going to go for that very walk today but the closest I got was around the Strathern Dr area. So nice out though and I clicked this pick of the lucky bastards on the bridge haha!

I wonder if the Mill Woods train signals have been tested yet.

I spotted the milling machine heading northbound by Bonnie Doon last Thursday.

That machine looks so metal I love it.

What a saga. Let's hope we avoid this drama...

Yeah Ottawa basically built what should've been an automated light metro system as a low-floor light rail line for... reasons, I guess?

It's our version of the Dr. Yellow - Shinkansen

So sad to see many lives put at risk. I wonder if there was sufficient geotechnical analysis done on the downtown portion of the line.

Nope, still fixed in one position and not cycling.

Truly a spectacular addition to our city in so many ways.

Has testing of the rail track resumed yet? I'm just hearing crickets.

Biked to Tawatina last weekend. Time-stamped the bridge on this video if anyone wants a video crossing it:
