It would be interesting to have a street car that takes people up the centre st hill to 16th ave (then people could jump on it quickly to go for lunch on Centre street from downtown) ......then after 16th, people would transfer to an LRT station (around the safeway) which becomes elevated from there, using the natural grade of the land to dictate whether the train touches ground, tunnels or is elevated.
I see the centre street hill as a HUGE obstacle in this project right now. We could figure out a future "grand solution" with a 20 year time frame that we can build towards and have something photo worthy. We dont want anything shabby happening just for the sake of it.
