Right, though I think most of that greenfield is really just the segment going through Aurora Business Park near 96 Ave.
As for deliverability, yeah it's the technical aspect of how easy (hard) it'll be to build.
So Edmonton Trail does have more issues with gradient as noted before, but surprisingly (to me) there are more narrow sections of Edmonton Trail then on Centre Street.

This seems to make sense, but I was also surprised to see how closely Edmonton Trail fought toe to toe with Centre Street based on that chart until what seemed like technological or logistical challenges that put Centre Street in as the clear favourite for final decision.

Same here, it's surprisingly close but I'd expect even if they were tied, Centre Street would get the nod because of its better transit development potential.
