News and Notes

North Central LRT Video

This is a video that has come out of the recent North Central LRT corridor engagement process. It's interesting, but a little bit vague and high-level. Not sure if it's just one of the options being presented or if, through engagement, this is the preferred one. Either way, lots left in the dialog and decision-making process.

Undercover Boss Canada

An episode of the show recently featured Calgary Transit director Doug Morgan going undercover on the front lines of Calgary Transit. As is the premise of the show, the focus is on the employees and what they go through on a day-to-day basis.

Here's a link to view it online. It's currently the top-listed clip:
