LRT Project launches LRT & ME webpage

From lrtprojects@edmonton.ca:

Early construction on the Valley Line West LRT has already started! Right now, we're busy planning and preparing for the project with our contractor, Marigold Infrastructure Partners. You may have even noticed some crews along the LRT route completing some borehole drilling. This early work helps us prepare the detailed design on the project.

We know that you’re likely wondering how this transformational project will impact you. We recently launched a brand new Valley Line West LRT & Me webpage (https://www.edmonton.ca/projects_plans/transit/lrt-and-me.aspx?utm_source=virtualaddress&utm_campaign=vlwlrtandme) that explains everything you need to know about upcoming construction.

Head on over to our webpage to learn more about what to expect during LRT construction. It’s here you’ll find information on what to expect from us, how construction will impact you, answers to common questions and resources to learn more about the project.

Temporary Transit Centre and Information Session

At the Summerlea Community League Board Meeting on April 20, we were visited by representatives from City of Edmonton to discuss the temporary relocation of the transit centre from West Edmonton Mall to a portion of the overflow parking lot along 90th Avenue.

The anticipated start date is May 10, and the relocation will be for 5-6 years while the construction for the Valley Line LRT along 87th Avenue is underway. The transit zone will be fenced off and there will be full security monitoring. View the presentation.

To get answers to your questions about the construction of the transit centre, register to attend the virtual information session taking place on Wednesday, May 5, from noon to 1 p.m.

Note that the session will be recorded and will be available online at edmonton.ca/ValleyLineWest for individuals who are unable to attend.
