The City's LRT plan has $3.4 billion in federal & provincial funding. Show your support for the plan.

Statement by Peter Moore

Hamilton has turned down funding for rapid transit before. In 1981, the City said no to an elevated rapid transit line connecting Jackson Square to Limeridge Mall; this is the same technology used to great effect in Vancouver aka the Skytrain.

Please don't turn down this opportunity again. Not only will we be able to move more people across the city but studies show that it will attract great ridership than BRT, be cheaper to operate than BRT and increases property values along the line.

That seems like a pretty good deal to me and I live nowhere near the proposed line and may never use it, frankly. But then I'm looking at the big picture, at what would help this city as a whole.

Say no to status quo.
