142st Stony Pl Rd tracks 👀

I’d say there are more pressing issues to solve in our city (donut effect) than setting ourselves up for high volume transit from the city’s edges, a century from now [whatever public transit looks like then …who knows?]

A few from Glenora today

Again, why sweeten the pot and incentivize moving/living past Henday? (and pay $$$ extra to do so) If our inner core's pop. density was at capacity I could see the rationale, but we're nowhere near that.

Flaw or a tradeoff? The design we're getting: adds vibrancy to the core and mature neighbourhoods; 'high speed line' alternative: amplifies the ol' donut city effect...

"Political capital" might've taken a hit if we took the route of 'elevated & expensive' and spent 2x on LRT buildout. Not everything has to revolve around drivers' convenience, Edmonton.

To what end? So that we minimize impact on driving and induce more of it?

Makes me wonder if that catastrophic flooding of the Revolution Cycle building (SPR & 150st) was accidental, or 'accidental'.
