I think the downtown should bring back the turnstiles (particularly after hours). Rides need a sense of security. Also, is there a way to incorporate better sight lines at some of the downtown stations?
Those things don't have to cancel each other.Totally unacceptable to let this continue, but I am still firmly of the belief that kicking people out of the LRT system if they have nowhere to go is a futile effort. It's time to start actually dealing with mental health, addictions and homelessness, rather than trying to focus on loitering, simple possession and general disorder. Those are unwinnable battles when people are allowed to continue to struggle.
Absolutely true. I think it's because there hasn't been much pushback to having homeless people and drug addicts using these spaces as temporary shelter during the day, especially when the weather is cold. It just comes off as cruel if the police or Peace officers are seen as kicking these people out.Why is an LRT station treated differently than a rec center, library, school, city hall, or any other public building? I don’t get it.
