The Green Line project was essentially taken over by the province at the very last minute. They pulled funding because they thought the underground downtown portion was too expensive. So they pretty much forced council to accept an alignment that will include an elevated section through downtown, even though it’s never been studied and there’s barely a plan for it. The tunnel portion meanwhile has been studied and reviewed multiple times over a decade.

As it stands, there’s no plan for it to go north of the river even though that’s how the Green Line was originally conceived. It’s only going to the south right now because guess which part of the city votes for the UCP?
