It's extremely unlikely that the City will return to the Nose Creek alignment. Transit's latest study and public consultation pretty much confirmed it will be either Centre Street or Edmonton Trail.
Which should it be?
In my view it would be very difficult, if not impossible, to connect the SELRT to NCLRT on an Edmonton Trail alignment - it's too far east of 2nd Street where the SELRT will run through downtown. Assuming Centre street - there's the difficult question of vertical alignment - underground (for a segment), at grade (modern-dedicated ROW - not 36th), or above grade (SkyTrain style)?
