Shaganappi Transit Study
We are launching a transit study for Shaganappi Trail aimed at improving transit service and connectivity in North Calgary, focusing on the growing area’s future mobility needs and constraints.
The study will look at the Shaganappi Trail corridor from the future Symons Valley Terminal to the Brentwood Light Rail Transit (LRT) station. This corridor provides north-south crosstown transit service to connect developing and established communities in northwest Calgary along the corridor to other PTN and regular transit routes at Brentwood transit terminal, including Red Line LRT, 144 Avenue North BRT, and MAX Orange.
Through this Transit Study, we will:
- Work with the public and key interested parties to identify transit needs, ideas, opportunities and/or challenges.
- Develop and recommend short-to-medium term and medium-to-long term options for improving transit service along Shaganappi Trail.
- Develop and suggest a preferred transit improvement plan to enhance future transit service along the corridor.
- Outline the phases, implementation strategy, and cost of the project.
How your feedback will be used:
We want to hear from you! Public input is a valuable part of developing the plan.
We will collect input from the public, along with technical data, City policies, budgets and best practices to inform the plan. The studies findings will show how transit connects with other transportation modes along the corridor and help guide future transit development.
The engagement process for the Shaganappi Trail Transit Study will be conducted in three phases:
- Discover - Gather initial public feedback to inform planning for the transit corridor.
- Explore - Share the draft transit corridor improvement plan for public feedback.
- Reveal- Present the updated plan and gather feedback to refine and prepare the final plan.
For each project phase, we’ll create a dedicated “What We Heard” report, ensuring that we build on insights from one phase to the next. Through our reporting process we will also share how public input influenced the draft transit improvement plan and the final plan.
Online Engagement Portal: November 12 to December 6
