Anyone know what happened to the nighttime LED lighting on the parkade at 69th? Saw them test it a couple times and it's been off ever since.

I would guess that there were complaints from nearby residents, but hopefully they are just waiting for project completion.

My bigger fear, and the more likely scenario imo, is that it's just another one in a string of terrible defective LED jobs done in this city (See Arriva).

Sounds plausible.

The Calgary transit website is saying December. No exact date yet however...

Hard to believe that the opening is just over a month away! Exciting times! Here I was worried that I wouldn't be able to take the train to Flames games....oh right I still won't be able to

I eagerly anticipate taking the WLRT, once, and then never again

I never bank on anything opening near christmas. I am betting it will be a january opening.

DizzyEdge · #**2117** Posted **Nov 7, 2012, 7:20 PM**

are there any plans in the works for the westbrook area? that seems like the only station that could be a destination (other than perhaps some retail developing around sunalta).
Actually I suppose it could be a destination as is for transit people wanting to hit walmart.
