Help Shape Calgary's Bus and Train Expansion Plans

Official title: Calgary's Transit Projects

Open Community Planning Housing & Communities Transportation
Calgary is planning major transit expansions including new bus rapid transit routes and light rail extensions. This is a hub page linking to individual project consultations across the city. Some projects are actively seeking feedback while others have completed their engagement phases.

Why This Matters

Take transit in Calgary? These projects could cut your commute time. Live in the northeast or southeast? New rapid bus lines are planned for your area. Even if you drive, better transit means less traffic congestion for everyone.

What Could Change

New bus rapid transit lines could connect Saddle Ridge to Seton via 52nd Street, and serve 144th Avenue North. The Red and Blue LRT lines may be extended. A rail connection to the airport is being studied. These changes would reshape how Calgarians get around for decades.

Key Issues

  • Where should new bus rapid transit routes be located?
  • How should the Red and Blue LRT lines be extended?
  • What station locations and alignments work best for each corridor?
