Some legacy items from the '88 Olympics as stated here and a few articles are the Nordic Centre, COP, the C-Train etc.
What could we potentially expect from hosting 2026?
- New Competition area at Fortress?
- Olympic Plaza Redevelopment?
- Perhaps a clean-up at West Village to possibly be an Athletes Village?
- Could this be a catalyst for Train service to Banff?
Even without events in the National Park, there would without doubt be plenty visitors to the Park and Townsite during the whole event... Is it realistic to use the Olympics to build passenger train service to Cochrane > Canmore > Banff? Perhaps even a temporary station near the Hwy 40 Kananaskis Turnoff to shuttle athletes if that ends up being the location for alpine events.
