Province pulling funding for Calgary's Green Line LRT project, letter says

City officials say they were told Tuesday that the province is withdrawing funding for Calgary's Green Line light rail transit (LRT) project.

The news comes as a major blow to the city, which has been planning the Green Line for years.

The province's decision to pull funding for the Green Line LRT project is a major setback for the city of Calgary. The project, which was expected to cost $5.5 billion, would have added a new 46-kilometre LRT line to the city's transit system. The line would have run from north to south Calgary, connecting major destinations such as the University of Calgary, the Foothills Medical Centre, and the Calgary Stampede grounds.
