Most recent maps can be found on Marigold's website. the bridge is in Area 3. The new bridge is shifted slightly to the south, rounding out the 'point' in SPR at the ravine slightly, but the new bridge is still essentially in the same spot as the existing one. This is just what they're telling...

I was by West Ed over the weekend, and just went back through my photos. They have 5-6 piers up in various states of completion, as well as what I’m guessing is some heavy steel to support formwork for the station itself. Also, i did some googling. The gantry(?) crane they’re going to use to...

the on-board cameras, I should clarify. apparently those only connect to the operator cab at the moment. the stations are monitored centrally (supposedly)

Profile Number (budget item?) 23-21-3002: Train to Wayside Technology it looks like the city is planning to (finally!) fix connectivity issues between LRVs and LRT Control. this new system would allow for LRT security cameras to be monitored live by central control to better manage security...

I saw trains testing on the hill, tonight, around 8pm. 2 two-car consists running side-by-side from the top of the hill (I guess where the barricades are) to Muttart. My understanding is that the 2 trains running next to each other is done to test the TPSS' capacity to supply trains at peak...

Those bike lanes get used a lot. I'm glad they are thinking about doing something here. That being said, this particular design is terrible. the accessibility issue is HUGE. I see it every day ( i bike this every day to work now, since moving this summer), people stranded in the street because...

Lol i was just making an idle comment about the choice of materials. Given the effort put in to scaffolding and enclosing some piers, and the amount of patching and monitoring on this pier (this is the one that’s had the survey marker on it for the last few weeks), and the overall ‘scientific...

Closeup photos from tonight. These are the piers between the parking lot and 75 St, in that median between the SUP and road. Yes, those are box nails plugging the holes. The piers on Wagner road just have more testing equipment on them. It looks pretty minimal, given how extensive the...

Hey, semi-random but i think this is the best thread to ask: does anyone know how the city assigns the MSO to areas surrounding LRT stations? I'm looking for the MSO around the Twin Brooks LRT station, which from every source I can find, is part of the current Capital Line South extension. The...

This whole sidewalk is built on top of Silva Cells; they just finished installing them all the way to 112st about a month ago. Those cells work really well; the section of 105ave west of 116 was built similarly and the sidewalk trees there are doing really well (vandalism aside). It looks like a...

Green Line page on Calgary is down too. The anti-LRT crusaders have found Skyrise somehow. Who ratted us out to Mike Nickel?

Any sort of reliable rail service along that corridor would be an improvement, even if not 'High Speed' (which is a pretty relative term, as in the Acela services is the U.S.). A bit faster than the bus, with better station locations/connections, and a consistent, reliable schedule is good...

key points for those who can't/don't want to watch the video: - 'root cause analysis' is almost complete into figuring out why the piers are cracking - 'lateral thermal forces' (not sure what that is, but i guess it's weather-related) are impacting the piers, with 21 piers affected. further...

yeah. Transed was precasting segments that spanned the entire distance between columns, as you say some of them were made at Davies. Marigold is gearing up to use a 'lighter' system, using prefabricated segments that have to be strung together to create the necessary spans. They mention it about...

First column of the Valley Line West has emerged from its cocoon! Here it is: It is ~6’ shorter than the column being formed next to it; i can only guess that the new column will be supporting a different profile of viaduct. Perhaps the tracks will bifurcate over the first column, meaning some...

PREACH THIS FROM THE ROOFTOPS. I'm seeing some wild stuff happening due to cost escalations right now. Projects are going to look WILDLY different than originally proposed due to cost-cutting. I am curious about why these windows shrank soooo much though. not just NECB?

Looks like fencing is coming down downtown. Quarters Station is no longer enclosed.

talked to the guy operating 1023 at Bonnie Doon this evening, actually. there are 2 cars stranded North of the cracks, 1023 and, if i recall correctly, 1022. Testing is still going, quote "24/7". they have no idea when it will be opening, there is repair work happening along the line, including...

I go through DT daily, past the tracks and Tawatina Bridge. I almost never see any LRVs. I think they might be storing them in the tunnel. They were at Muttart for a while but I haven't seen them recently, odd given at least one is apparently stranded. The tunnel would be more secure. Henry the...
