Just borrow the design from the PNE Amplitheter and add that to the old Saddle dome bowl.

If Farkas wins the mayoral race this project would likely move forward with additional funding. He mentioned the pathway in multiple locations in his policy platform (Parks and Mobility) and was/is? the CEO of the Glenbow Ranch Park Foundation.

I often think a Streetcar would be ideally used to connect Westbrook and Stampede Station. Pros: Runs at the surface in the centre lanes (scope creep to upgraded sidewalks on 17) Brings a looped connection to the beltline and 17th ave Provides an additional point to leave Stampede grounds for...

The timeline for the release of the Passenger Rail Master Plan has been hinted at in this article. https://calgaryherald.com/opinion/columnists/danielle-smith-alberta-high-speed-rail An updated report based on public feedback before the stampede and and finalized report by fall 2025.
