Why do people think St Albert is a priority for LRT?

BRT for sure, but LRT would be a gross mis-use of money in my mind

I really dont think St. Albert would ever get one; but imagine 2 lines. 1 under st. albert trail to DT and one down 170th to the west end.

57,000 people... dont think it's enough population to serve.

I for one would take it in the drop of a hat. I do believe, however, that Edmonton needs to service itself. If St. Albert wants one, it pays for one. It doesn't need to be leeching off of Edmonton.

We (they?) have their own bus system anyways.

What is this you speak of? Isn't there just going to be a booth at an open house for shaw's hall D?

As for St.Albert...id like to see the LRT hit there eventually as many work in the downtown core.

There's far too much winking on this forum. I never have any idea what's going on.

I believe it is in the River Valley room every Monday starting at 4pm. I'm sure that room can hold atleast 30 or 40 people. I highly doubt you'd get more than that, but that would be awesome!..."standing room only" HAHA

^Weeeee...the ride continues. Stationlands is starting to remind me of the Energizer bunny (and not in a good way.)

Anyone know what Oasis Edmonton is about? The 2007 U-20 FIFA Men's World Cup is pretty cool too.
