Alberta's transportation minister says the City of Calgary's decision to wind down the Green Line LRT project is "unfortunate” — but he isn’t completely closing the door on the transit initiative.

To pause (instead of wind down) the current project and wait for the province to present their realignment plan (expected near the end of 2024) would cost The City nearly $1M per day. That’s more than $90M over the span of the next three months.
