I always thought a good starter LRT line would be Okanagan College to Sopa Square to Hospital District to Downtown. Second expansion down Harvey Ave to Landmark/Parkinson Rec, third expansion up to North Glenmore, then fourth expansion to UBC and maybe YLW.
I did up a rough outline on Google My Maps, including a reconfigured 97 to go to Rutland instead of UBC once the LRT goes to UBC. I chose Glenmore because of the fairly medium density development on that linear route and the road is wide enough for a dedicated LRT ROW. Between North Glenmore and UBC, I thought using Curtis Road would be a better solution but there may be roadblocks that stopped cyclists years ago from using the same road to get to UBC.
