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

[Gronk!]

The creditors report which was linked here a few months back says opening is planned for July 29.

This will likely be open for the Folk Fest although the Taste of Edmonton opening is up in the air.

Given that the deadline has been pushed back a number of times, I am not sure how seriously people take anything put out about this any more.

Just by the endless delays this will probably open after the valley line west

Today would be a good day to test the Valley Line LRT between downtown and Millwoods

They were in the River Valley at least. However, the only track cleared of snow were the tracks being tested. No snow had been cleared Downtown or in Mill Woods.

I’m thinking that the LRT could test on the flyover between Davies station and the Gerry Wright LRT vehicle facility. They would only need to have three traffic crews at the intersections on 75 Street.

They were testing from the Tunnel entrance out across the bridge, up into at least Strathearn, possibly farther. I lost sight beyond the top of the hill. Train seemed to be running well given the weather! The videos I got aren't moving off my phone to something I can share them off of lol.
The East tunnel portal is being worked on. I think that might be why only the southbound track is being used right now.

Some of the train signals in Strathearn are working with the lights.

Do they still use flaggers at those spots?

^ I don't know, although they might be there for the purpose of safety.

I knew it was not pretty, but this new LRT traction (or whatever it is) building in such a prominent location top off bank is simply insulting. How can we reasonably ask others to do it better when City initiated projects deliver this POS.
