Tonight and probably next Tuesday (April 11 & 18) Halifax Regional Council will be deciding whether to undertake Phase 1 of a feasibility study for diesel light rail commuter service from Beaverbank to downtown Halifax via Bedford and Mount Saint Vincent. CN has indicated that it will be removing one of the two tracks by Sept. 1 unless HRM negotiates with CN by that date. The second track is a critical element in the proposed light rail service which could potentially be extended into the downtown core via a street tramway in a dedicated lane. If you have opinions on this proposal, you may wish to call your Councillor. For more information or your Councillor's name & number, call Marcus Garnet, HRM Planning & Development Services, 490-4481. -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Ed: See editorial in Daily News, 11 Apr 00, for an excellent editorial. -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- The preceding message was posted on the Sustainable Maritimes mailing list (sust-mar). http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/lists/sust-mar -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Sponsors: Chebucto Community Net http://www.chebucto.ns.ca Sierra Club - Chebucto Group http://www.sierraclub.ca Volunteer moderator: Paul Falvo mailto:sust-mar-owner@chebucto.ns.ca
