Mayor Pushes Downtown Tunnel Deal
Description
Calgary’s mayor is betting big on a federal-only tunnel deal for the downtown leg of the Green Line LRT, risking a standoff with the province that’s ruled out tunnels—but insists it could boost ridership and public support by shifting focus south first. Council is split: some see it as a delay tactic that could derail the north leg, while others back the underground route for downtown safety and character. With a September council review looming, the city’s gamble could reshape the entire transit plan—or spark a deeper crisis.
