Green Line LRT Project Update

Reminder - Get a sneak peek of updated plans for segment 2 projects at an upcoming virtual event

Since October 2020, we’ve hosted virtual public engagement on key project areas in segment 2 of the Green Line LRT project, including Planning in Crescent Heights, Bow River LRT bridge and the North Central Mobility & Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Studies.

The feedback we received from you during the first two phases of engagement was used by the project teams to help shape and refine functional plans for each of these project areas. Now, during the final “Inform” phase of engagement from April 15 to 22, 2021, we’ll be giving you the first look at the plans and recommendations that will be presented to the Green Line Committee this spring.

There's still time to register for a virtual presentation or drop-in session

From April 15– 22, 2021, join us at a virtual presentation to learn more about updated project plans & recommendations and connect with members of the Green Line team.

9 PM Routine Safety/Security Checklist

Have you started your 9 pm Routine? 

Vehicle theft and car prowling prevention:

• Garage openers should not be left in vehicles, or should be disengaged, as thieves can use them to gain entry into a home.

• Avoid parking in unlit areas at night

• Lock your doors and close all windows at all times, even while you are in your yard.

• Hide your valuables out of sight, or better yet, take them with you.

• Don’t keep extra keys in your vehicle.

• If you park your vehicle in a parkade, be sure that you do not let anyone else in who doesn’t belong when you are entering and exiting.

• Report any suspicious activity or behaviour, such as someone trying door handles on parked vehicles.

Home and garage break-in prevention:

• Offenders will often break into a residence as a way to steal a vehicle parked outside the residence. When you’re at home, store your vehicle keys away from the entrance to your house.

• Consider installing home and vehicle alarm systems and vehicle anti-theft devices.

• Ensure that all doors and windows are secured at all times, even when you’re home. Culprits need mere moments to commit a theft or break in. If you do open any windows or doors, make sure you only open them for rooms that someone is present in.

• Report any suspicious people or activity in your community by calling 403-266-1234 or 9-1-1 if there is a crime in progress.
