Students have been wanting this for years now. So have many other Calgarians. What I am trying to say is that it is about time that an additional C-train route is built to the Mount Royal campus. This would make it much easier for students to get to school without having to waste gas money on driving everyday.
A line should be made that runs through the Mount Royal campus and meets up with the existing line along Macleod. This would greatly cut down on traffic along Crowchild and Glenmore and also reduce the amount of accidents. It also provides a safe and reliable way for students to get to school every day.
Since we are college students and do not have a whole lot of money to spend of gas every week, the implementation of this rail line creates a very cost effective way to get to school, since our Calgary transit pass is included in our already too-expensive tuition.
I realize that we do have free bus passes as well and bus routes do go through campus, but a train would be so much more reliable and students wouldn't have to always rush to get to the stop at a particular time, they can just wait an additional 10 minutes for the next train.
Again this is just an idea which I believe would be very convenient and safe, but I do hope the city seriously considers this plan to build and additional c-train route through campus.
