LRT Pac Meeting with PMSS - Sep 6,2006

LRT PAC MEETING PMSS

Tonight I attended the PMSS Pac meeting with Translink on LRT. Translink brought their diagrams and maps showing their routing and responded to many questions from the group in attendance. Many of the questions, of course, centred around the safety of the students crossing St Johns. Also, the capacity of the station to accomodate a flood of 200+ kids heading onto the platform at one time, the changes to the existing local bus service and some scheduling questions.

The translink staff continue to do an excellent job in my opinion of presenting the information on this project and communicating with the community. While Im not a supporter of the line as it is currently planned, I do believe we need to have the best plan for whatever we end up with, and I think the translink staff are doing their best to ensure that happens
