Who needs a million stops downtown for light rail? The core isn't immense but it has much density to it. Say 3-4 stops downtown. One @ Purdys (or a rail terminal in place of the Cogswell) as mentioned above, another say on Sackville St. and the third ending at the Via Station. Seeing as much of downtown's built on a hill, run it along Barrington or Lower Water. It'd be hard to go underground and would make traffic downtown a bloody nightmare but it'd make the best sense IMO. As for metro, Dartmouth, Bedford and Sackville I'd imagine would be easy to map out for a line. For the record, I've never been to Halifax (except the airport) but I've studied the area enough as of late so planning/pipe-dreaming looks fun to do for the HRM.
