Valley Line LRT | TransEd/Marigold | City of Edmonton

Now if we could only force the Brewery District to open up entrances to shops on the sidewalk instead of just the parking lot once this is done...

I think there could be more residential and commercial development at the Brewery District when Valley Line West opens.

A couple of 50-75m towers in these spots would be great to see

I don't follow, the stores/businesses were designed for entrance from the lot not the street. Are you suggesting that the stores be rebuilt to include both street and lot access? I can see the 1 point of entry for the businesses as being easier to maintain their stocks...

These might a better proposition, larger footprint, and about 12 - 15 stories high?

^ that traffic light footing/base in the bottom-right isn't *quite* centered on that sidewalk – could block that a little more effectively

Realistically, most won't be able to adjust, I understand that. It's just a shame it's so parking-lot oriented when they knew the LRT would be built there. It's a wish for actual street orientation, more than a realistic suggestion of what might happen

Looks like there’s rail ready for Stony Plain Road.

The Glenora stop platform should be poured before the road is reopened. Looking like good progress in the area

Apparently it's not just drivers who are stupid

Unfortunately this person paid a hell of a price.

How? Maybe he was walking on the tracks?

The original post I saw about this said he was riding a bike, clearly drunk, on the tracks and turned into the train.
