The Green Line Program is vital to the future of Calgary and benefits all Calgarians, enabling The City to achieve significant economic, social and environmental rewards. The Green Line is designed to be both a transit system and a platform for long-term city building opportunities, spurring redevelopment and investment opportunities in Calgary businesses and communities. It will provide efficient service and connections to destinations throughout the city, including opening new areas where people can live affordably with access to amenities, services and sustainable mobility options. The full Green Line alignment is 46 kilometres and runs from 160 Avenue N. to Seton in the southeast. This line will almost double the City’s existing LRT network. A project of this size cannot be built all at once. The Green Line will be delivered in stages as funding becomes available.

Green Line is planned for long-term city shaping and spurring redevelopment and investment opportunities in Calgary and will be an important part of the city’s recovery generating 20,000 jobs.” Michael Thompson, GM Green Line City of Calgary: Senior Commercial Manager – Segment 1, Green Line Page | 2 Construction of Stage 1 is a pivotal first step in achieving Green Line’s vision.
