Churchill continues to gain in importance as the hub of Edmonton transit.

I didn't realize that a set of stairs was added in front of Milner as part of the project. I assume those are already open to the public?

Although there's a lot of criticism out there about surface LRT, a major advantage is the ability to jump on a train and travel a few stops to get around instead of having to go down a few levels to a subway platform.

Partial view of the completed station:

^that little grey square roof on the middle right is the new 'connector' which has escalators to take you to and fro UG to at grade lines.

Is it just me or does this look like the Skytrain with poles sticking up?

This station always reminded me of a 75% Brentwood.

Dow's Lake (previously Carling) station. It will remain single track, but a new platform twice the length will be built and new double elevators will be added.

Bayview expansion progress. Consists of doubling the length of the old platform, adding a second set of tracks with side platform, a new bridge over the tracks that connects a new (third) station entrance on the MUP.

The following I took yesterday (cloudy day), and about a week ago (sunny day). The amount of progress being made on the surface level areas in the east end of this streetcar project is impressive, it's looking much more complete now....
Here's Pharmacy station, which is a few stops from the eastern terminus:

Lincoln Fields and Line 3 flyover.

A recent site plan of Lincoln Fields Station. The Parkway-Byron tunnel ends just north. Line's 1 and 3 split South of the station.

During regular hours, all trains will use the centre platform. To transfer between the outbound Lines 1 and 3, riders will exit the train and catch the next one (with outbound trains splitting 50/50). Late night when service is reduced to 15 mins, Line 3 trains will end at Lincoln Fields at the side platform, so all passengers heading inbound will have to get off, up to the concourse and down to the centre platform.

The station will have public washrooms, retail and a fare-paid bus loop.

TransEd provided a full update last night around the Downtown section of the line.

We had hoped for an Aug/Sept opening or 9 months late, but they are saying 'end of year now' which doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things/COVID, but is certainly disappointing to hear.
