    Page 1 of 19 Item # 7.1 Green Line Report to ISC: UNRESTRICTED Green Line Committee GC2020-0583 2020 June 01 Green Line Update Stage 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Green Line is important to the future of Calgary and benefits all Calgarians. It represents a significant investment in our transportation network, in our communities, and the future of our city. In its entirety, Green Line will deliver high-quality transit service to Calgarians in north central and southeast communities, and strategically connect communities, employment hubs, and key destinations for Calgarians who live and work across the city. Green Line will not only provide more mobility choice for Calgarians and enhance future community building, moving forward with Green Line today will ready Calgary for tomorrow’s recovery. Green Line Stage 1 will be an important part of Calgary’s economic recovery. The Stage 1 investment will create an estimated 20,000 jobs and comes at a critical time when it is important to bolster Calgary’s economy. Green Line is also a long-term investment in the growth and development of our city, it will be part of Calgary’s global competitive advantage and will help attract new businesses and a young, talented workforce to our city. In July 2019, Administration advised Council of the need to re-evaluate the scope of Stage 1 to bring the Program’s cost estimates within budget, manage construction risk and improve the customer experience to best achieve the Green Line vision. Council directed Administration to undertake a review of the Stage 1 alignment and to complete a series of due diligence activities to confirm that Stage 1 has the right alignment, that Stage 1 is the right project for Calgary and that it will be delivered using the right approach.

  • Service Alerts – Digital Displays
    Service Alerts – Digital Displays TriMet has digital displays at most MAX Light Rail stations to provide real-time arrival information as well as service disruption/delay messaging. Some of the displays are flat screens as shown to the right. Others are reader boards. Due to space, the messages need to be as condensed as possible. While we regularly post the same alert at stations along a line, during the Rose Quarter MAX Improvements we provided more specific alerts by geographical locations and even individual stations. This was because the service plan, while best for the majority of riders, was complex and posed communications challenges. MAX Blue Line only displays MAX Blue Line disrupted and frequency reduced.

    e: [email protected] w: www.quarrypark.ca QUARRY PARK NEWS QUARRY PARK NEWSLETTER JUNE 2017 WELCOME SUMMER! Summer is finally here and gardening season is in full swing! We all want our neighbourhood looking its very best, and well maintained lawns and boulevards go a long way to ensure that our community is safe, clean and attractive. Yard maintenance falls under Community Standards Bylaw 5M2004, which can be reviewed in detail at www.calgary.ca/CSPS/ABS/Pages/Bylaws-by-topic/Yards.aspx. We have listed a few of the main topics addressed in the bylaw below: Grass and Weeds Owners/occupiers of a property are generally responsible for caring for and maintaining their property and adjacent areas such as boulevards, sidewalks and lanes, up to the centre of the back alley. Keep weeds under control and don’t allow them to spread onto other properties. Any invasive plants and noxious weeds must be destroyed, but should not be placed in a composter as this will contribute to the seed spreading. Use pesticides responsibly, consider chemical- free alternatives, and advise your neighbours before you use a pesticide. The best time to water your lawn is early in the morning or after it cools off in the evening. Please make sure water isn’t running onto the street or sidewalk. For water-saving tips, visit the City of Calgary Water Services web site at www.calgary.ca/waterservices. Trees and Shrubs Trees and shrubs on public sidewalks and boulevards are maintained by the City of Calgary and are protected under the Tree Protection Bylaw.
