Over the past 6 months I have met with representatives from several LRV manufacturers and have seen some of what the new breed of LRT vehicles will bring to Calgary.

While at the Federation of Canadian Municipalities I became aware of the Aerobus, a “self propelled vehicle speeds silently through the sky carrying 300 passengers.”

Aside from the price tag difference of an elevated LRT, compared to the current LRT lines that Calgary enjoys, the reduced need to build at grade infrastructure (tracks, traffic control, land usage), the lack of disruption for motorists and the reduced environmental footprint encouraged me to look at this as well as all of the other options for which to design the Southeast TransitWay (SETWAY).
