Bustamante, Jose Pablo Maybe I stand for a better transit system. I believe that we need to improve our transit system and that we require a comprehensive master plan for the HSR. A plan that will include all options including monorails like in Wuppertal, Germany (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuppertal_Schwebebahn). If the master plan and the research point us to an LRT, then let's build it. I will not jump into a solution like the LRT or a BRT without having a plan. Many other projects in the past lacked of a master plan. The airport for example was a good idea, but was done aiming for passengers when Toronto Airport was under major renovations, thus the timing was not good. The Red Hill Creek Highway in the other hand was not designed taking in consideration heavy rains. We need to plan better our main projects.
Josipovic, Bernard Yes I do support Hamilton's LRT proposal. We need to control traffic and pollution in this City before it get's out of hand. The LRT has many benefits to it.
Pearson, Maria Yes Yes, emphatically, yes! I support LRT. I believe Hamilton missed the opportunity in the 80's and we cannot have this happen again. We need to keep pushing Hamilton forward.
