The City of Calgary's next LRT line and largest infrastructure investment in history.

About us

The Green Line is the City of Calgary's next light rail transit (LRT) line. It is also the largest infrastructure investment in our city’s history with $4.9 billion in commitments from the Government of Canada, Government of Alberta and City of Calgary. Construction is underway creating jobs today. Construction of Phase 1 will generate 20,000 jobs with opportunities for local contractors, suppliers and businesses as we build: -13 stations -18 km of LRT track - 3 park and ride facilities - 1 km of elevated track - 3 km of tunnel track - 4 LRT bridge structures - 1 LRV maintenance and storage facility The Green Line LRT Project will use modern low floor light rail vehicles (LRVs) marking an exciting step for Calgary’s transit network. Low floor LRV technology has been the standard in Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand for decades. It is now becoming the choice for new LRT systems across Canada and the United States. The first phase of the Green Line LRT will provide seamless connections with the existing Red and Blue LRT lines and the four MAX BRT routes. Calgarians will have fast, frequent and reliable transit service to communities, employment hubs, tourist destinations and essential services. The Green Line LRT will play an important role in shaping the City’s future. It is both a transit system and a platform for long-term city building. This will encourage redevelopment and investment opportunities in Calgary businesses and communities.
