Valley Line LRT | TransEd/Marigold | City of Edmonton

Stony Plain Rd & 146 ST looking west.


Pretty wide sidewalks. There definitely wasn't enough room for a bike lane or proper MUP, but these sidewalks appear to be wide enough to be used as a shared path.

Overall, looking good, too bad it'll be a few years before it sees service, and yes, agree that we are looking at a shared pathway, in fact isn't that the new branding vs bike path?
 
Elevated section over 165st has been completed. 2 more to go before the gantry heads back west.

How we feeling about them being done all elevated sections by EOY? That was their goal I know. Is the pacing going to make that possible with what’s left west of WEM?

Im not sure how long it’ll take them to move the gantry back west, or how long it’ll take to jump over the girders at WEM station. If they can erect segments until December it’s possible.
 
Have to figure they’re getting close to paving at least some segments of SPR at this point. All sidewalks and utilities look about there.

I'm curious to know how the Valley Line LRT is co-existing with the Taste of Edmonton?

I really didn't see a problem, The Taste starts north of the line, just 100th north of Jasper is totally closed this year.

Great connections, just walk off and BAM, you're there!

***edit, slight change since my original posting. The Churchill connector is closed to the north side (facing taste of edmonton), so unless you are getting off the 1st tram car, you have a block walk, same as anyone using the LRT and coming up thru the Churchill connector...
