I think they pulled it off surprisingly after my first ride

I thought the trains stopping at the lights would have bothered me more than I thought. But the trains have nice acceleration and feels appropriate in speed (not too fast but also not too slow). The doors feel aggressive though and close fast when ur trying to wait for ppl to get off the train...

This take is a bit extreme...a $100 gift card from the city's budget is probably worth as much or even less than a penny and would probably come from the city's promotional budget. promotion is not propaganda.

Let's wait and see how many daily riders there are first once the hype dies down before talking about less than 5 min frequencies and extending the trains. Too early to tell if there is be a need for higher capacity right now

why don't they put some seats near the rink in the middle for these winter classic games, theres so much empty space.

Currently in person at the public inquiry at city hall during the opposition hearing. Most ppl I saw here were probably 50 or retired. I am the only "young" person here right now. First time attending a council meeting after coming from uni. It's an interesting experience. I highly encourage...

All this person is concerned about is how the zoning change could potentially cast more shadows on her house and her garden from a redevelopment next door... including 4 photos to explain how 💀💀💀.

This complaint becomes more and more insane and deluded as I read it through. 💀

Noooo! Lets keep our precious Edmonton to ourselves and lay low. They can all go to Calgary. Let us be known as Deadmonton. 👀

^^ People would always complain, its kinda expected

Anyone got this in the mail? NIMBYs are coming, please email ur councilor or find other ways to show ur support of the new zoning bylaw.

@TravellingChris, I don't think any TODs can ever be a true "failure" unless the whole area gets dismantled. Once you develop a permanent rail network in the TOD area, there will always be opportunities for the surroundings to evolve and develop/redevelop over time into denser capacity. The...

Lets hope the update would be: "Line opens next week!"

Just went out for a walk on the new wem bridge. I am not a big fan of it at all. You have to walk very far from either side of the intersection to get up to the bridge and the bridge drops you off at the parking lot by Hudsons bay. The walk feels very cumbersome so I don't think many people...

Lets keep Edmonton's market on a low profile. Calgary can take the heat 👀

Seeing the pillars built up so quickly by west ed and the overall visible progress near it everyday, I am optimistic about Valley Line west.

Blatchford gate station will be the emptiest station ever
