Is this Calgary's future transit network?

On September 17, the team behind RouteAhead (Calgary Transit's 30-year plan) presented a public update to City Council and it included this draft map of our future rapid transit network. This map is based on citizen ideas, plans for future growth, and best practices from around the world. 

Is this the shape of Calgary Transit to come? RouteAhead wants you to tell them what you think, and they will be hosting public engagement sessions throughout the fall (check into RouteAhead.ca for the latest).

The presentation to Council included more than just a draft rapid transit map. It also covered a snapshot of RouteAhead's public engagement, the core principles for the development of the final RouteAhead plan, and draft evaluation criteria for rapid transit capital projects. The evaluation criteria will assist in prioritizing future projects as funding becomes available.

If you have 3.5 hours available, you can even watch the whole presentation (including Council debate) online.
