  • Green Line LRT Updated Segment 2 (16 Avenue N to Elbow River) Alignment, Station Location and Concept Plan
    GC2020-0583 Attachment 4 Green Line LRT Updated Segment 2 (16 Avenue N to Elbow River) Alignment, Station Location and Concept Plan ISC: Unrestricted Page 1 of 45 GC2020-0583 Attachment 4 Executive Summary This document outlines the updated Green Line Segment 2 alignment and station location plan and presents concepts that illustrate how this segment might look like. Segment 2 extends from 16 Avenue N and Centre Street N south to the Elbow River in the Beltline. The alignment was updated in order to bring the project cost estimates within budget, manage construction risk, and best deliver the vision of the project. The updated Segment 2 alignment and station location plan includes: • surface-running LRT on Centre Street N; • a bridge over the Bow River; • 2.5 km of tunnel in the Downtown and Beltline; and • 6 stations (2 at surface, 4 underground). To develop the updated Segment 2 alignment, station location and concept plan, planning and design objectives were developed from internal and external stakeholder interests and from public feedback from Green Line public engagement sessions, community meetings and stakeholder workshops. These design objectives will be used to inform the development of the functional design for the project. Segment 2 – Updated alignment and station location plan Figure identifies sections of Segment 2 alignment that are at-grade (solid lines), tunnel (dashed line) and bridge (solid line with black outline). ISC: Unrestricted Page 2 of 45 GC2020-0583 Attachment 4 Centre Street N Downtown (Eau Claire, Chinatown & Downton Core) The LRT alignment will run along the surface of The alignment continues from the new LRT bridge across the Centre Street N in the middle of the road, with a single lane Bow River, over the Bow River Pathway, and travels south of traffic in each direction and no on-street parking.

  • Anderson Station Park and Ride Plan 1. Introduction 2. Previous Council
    TT2016-0719 ATTACHMENT 1 Anderson Station Park and Ride Plan 1. Introduction In response to Report TT2016-0319, Council directed Administration to "Report back to the SPC on Transportation and Transit with a park and ride plan for Anderson Station no later than 2016 September." In order to support transit-oriented development (TOD) at Anderson Station park and ride lot, Real Estate and Development Services (RE&DS) and Calgary Transit are developing a plan to balance park and ride supply with land redevelopment opportunities. This is necessary to balance the customer demand for park and ride stalls during redevelopment of the station area. 2. Previous Council Direction/Policy At the 2016 June 20 Regular Meeting of Council, Council amended and accepted the recommendations outlined in TT2016-0319 – A Review of Calgary Transit Park and Ride, and directed Administration to: 1. Develop a general park and ride strategy for current and future CTrain stations with the goal of optimizing park and ride and Transit Oriented Development (TOD) opportunities to achieve an overall target to serve approximately 15 percent of weekday peak period CTrain trips based on the park and ride planning criteria outlined in Attachment 1. 2. Enable shared use parking in the vicinity of CTrain stations and major bus use terminals through Land Use and Policy provisions. 3. Explore additional funding for park and ride development and management using surplus revenues from other parking. 4. Transition towards a system of 100 percent monthly reserved parking with differential pricing based on demand and offer a system of daily reserved parking that utilizes vacant monthly reserved spaces.

  • Transportation Report to Strategic Meeting of Council 2017 May 15
    Transportation Report to ISC: UNRESTRICTED Strategic Meeting of Council C2017-0467 2017 May 15 Page 1 of 10 GREEN LINE LRT: BUILDING THE CORE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report presents the recommended first stage of construction for the Green Line Light Rail Transit (LRT): 16 Avenue N (Crescent Heights) to 126 Avenue SE (Shepard) laying the foundation for Calgary’s next LRT line. This core project will improve mobility choices, support community development, provide greater transportation choices to access Calgary’s community amenities and resources, and is essential to support Calgary’s growth. The Green Line LRT is a momentous investment in Calgary’s future and marks our city’s most extensive transit expansion serving our city for many generations to come. Defining the first (core) stage of construction over the coming decade is necessary to provide clear direction to the other orders of government on the project scope and in order to secure project funding so that detailed design and construction can proceed. Administration is presenting our assessment of where to commence the construction of Green Line. Supported by a detailed evaluation to compare and contrast the numerous staging options, the core project will establish a strong foundation of LRT service and supporting facilities (such as the maintenance and storage facility) required to operate the new line. The core project will complete the most technically complex and capital intensive aspects of the long-term vision. The core project has the highest readiness; Administration is confident that The City can move quickly into construction while minimizing risks to The City. This foundational core project will best facilitate future extensions and demonstrates The City’s commitment to implementing the long-term vision for the Green Line LRT.

  • Green Line LRT in My Community
    Green Line LRT in My Community What we heard report At-Grade Stations 4 Street S.E., Highfield, Lynnwood/Millican, Ogden, South Hill, Quarry Park, Douglas Glen, Shepard April 2018 Project overview On June 26, 2017, City Council approved the full vision for the Green Line LRT. The vision for Green Line includes a 46 km route from 160 Avenue North to Seton, and 28 stations. Construction on the first 20 km is anticipated to begin in 2020, and will extend from 16 Avenue N (Crescent Heights) to 126 Avenue SE (Shepard). Construction of Stage 1 is expected to be complete by 2026. Once Stage 1 is complete, extensions will be built as funds become available to complete the full vision. The purpose of the engagement was to gather input on safety and security, aesthetics and landscaping, and access to stations to help develop guiding technical documents that will be used during construction of Green Line – Stage 1. Engagement overview In January and February 2018, The City of Calgary held open houses and pop-up sessions with community members to provide information about the Green Line LRT - Stage 1 and to collect input on station design, station area look and feel, safety and security and community experience. From January 18, 2018 to February 13, 2018 The City of Calgary hosted an online survey on its engagement portal at engage.calgary.ca/GreenLine to solicit feedback from Calgarians. Input collected from the public will be reflected in the technical documents that will guide the construction of Green Line – Stage 1. Open house sessions for at-grade stations were held at the Glenmore Inn on January 25, 2018 and the Millican Ogden Community Association on February 3, 2018.
