The new LRT (light rail transit) project is the largest infrastructure investment in our city's history. It comes with $5.5 billion in commitments from the Government of Canada, Government of Alberta and The City of Calgary.
Before construction begins, our Development Partner, BTC, will undertake additional due diligence work to test ground conditions through a series of geotechnical and environmental borehole drilling exercises.

Phase 1 of the Green Line LRT will serve tens of thousands of Calgarians daily, connecting communities from the southeast to central Calgary.
Green Line is part of a long-term vision for our city. Phase 1 connects to the Red and Blue LRT lines, three MAX rapid bus routes and builds the foundation for extensions to the north and south, as funding is made available.
The Calgary area, where the Bow and Elbow rivers meet, is a place of confluence where the sharing of resources, ideas and opportunities naturally come together. We would like to take this opportunity to appreciate and acknowledge that we are gathered on the ancestral and traditional territory of the Blackfoot Confederacy, made up of the Siksika, Piikani, Amskaapipiikani, and Kainai First Nations; the Îethka Nakoda Wîcastabi First Nations, comprised of the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations; and the Tsuut’ina First Nation. The city of Calgary is also homeland to the historic Northwest Métis and to Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3. We acknowledge all Indigenous people who have made Calgary their home.
