Re: Mount Royal University Faculty and Staff for SW BRT

18 July 2016

Dear Transportation and Transit Committee:

Last week the Students' Association of Mount Royal University submitted a four-page letter offering their "unequivocal support" for the construction of the SW BRT line which will bring better transit to the Mount Royal campus.

As SAMRU noted in their letter, "To have this project face further delays or even cancellation would, in our view, be a gross disservice to the students, faculty and staff of Mount Royal University."

We, as Faculty and Staff at Mount Royal University, not only recognize the positive impacts this project will offer to our campus community, but also the benefits it will have for the thousands in our city who rely on public transit in their daily lives.

By adding our names as supporters of the SW BRT, we are speaking out in solidarity with our students and adding our voices to the call for better transit for all Calgarians.
