Downtown Segment

On June 17, 2025, an update was provided to Executive Committee of Council outlining the next steps for the Green Line LRT Downtown Segment — the portion of the line stretching west from the future Event Centre/Grand Central Station into Downtown Calgary.

Since project approval, the focus has been on internal coordination, establishing the project team, and bringing on an Owner’s Engineer to support technical planning and design development. This foundational work will help shape the Functional Plan for this critical segment of Calgary’s north-south LRT network.

Formal public engagement is planned to begin in early 2026 and will be a key milestone in shaping the design of the Downtown Segment. The Functional Plan is expected to be complete by the fourth quarter of 2026 and will reflect both technical considerations and community input.
