You just know that the vast, vast majority of the population growth in NS will be in HRM. If the population projections are true, there could be 1.4M Haligonians by 2060, equivalent to the current day population of Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa. All three of these cities have subways and/or LRT. 2060 is only 40 years away. There is no time left to dither. Planning should be occurring now. Negotiations with other levels of government should be occurring now. Construction should begin in the next 10 years or so.
The clock is ticking............

Out of curiosity, where abouts in city do people see a viable LRT option. West end to downtown? North end to downtown?
