The new extension is key to the city’s continued growth and will connect northern and southern suburbs to the city’s downtown center.
The Green Line project team had an objective to identify revenue sources that would help offset capital costs.
An analysis was needed to determine how the private sector could be leveraged to create funding opportunities for the City of Calgary.
