Jimi or Galston, does TruWinnipeg know the status of the 2004-2005 Special Rapid Transit Task Force BRT plan? Has there been any movement at all to address the critera the MCC lay out here? |
Very good.. your searching has impressed me. With a set criteria a Rapid transit system constructed in stages .. but we must be able to anwser those very important questions.
I am not against rapid transit ... if it is done in tandum with economic expansion it could be a very positive development. I just don't want it to be the one and only focus and than watch the economy 10 years done the road crippled under debt and expenses.
A modern and healthy city with a strong economy needs rapid transit.
