Edmonton’s Light Rail Future Unfolds | Canada News

from Canada News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Edmonton’s bold 2009 light rail vision is finally paying off—with the Valley Line West set to complete by 2028, matching the original plan despite a population surge past 1.2 million. Three lines and 30 stops now serve the city, with 19 new stops on the way, plus housing built along transit routes to handle demand. Construction is hitting key milestones: track work from Stony Plain to Lewis Farms should be done by year’s end, and the maintenance facility will follow. But progress comes with a price—expect lane closures on 104th Ave, 102nd/105th St, and Stony Plain Road later this month as crews keep building the future, one inconvenient detour at a time.
