So looking at the paper the $700M for the West LRT seems to be ready to get bidders, and the subject of putting it underground again came up.
So as Calgarians who may or may not be using this (whether you live by or near it or not), would you support the extra $85M+ its believe to cost to put it underground? Its fairly obvious it wont be going to MRU (a whole different issue), but should the 20 year old plans be updated to "build it right"?
The main lines are already fucked, so I think we might as well have at least one that is built properly. The whole thing is going to be a massive pain in the ass for a few years anyway, why not at the end make it so it isn't an annoyance afterwards as well?
