Less than two months after the idea won a high-profile contest in Alberta’s capital, the notion that Edmontonians could begin using gondolas as a form of public transit is not only not grounded, it continues to soar.
The gondola proposal will now move forward to the Urban Planning Committee where city councillors will look more closely at it and decide if it should continue to advance.
The initial concept envisioned the gondola having stations at three different locations: the Shaw Conference Centre on Jasper Avenue, near RE/MAX Field in the river valley, and at the parking lot across from the Old Strathcona Farmers’ Market on Gateway Boulevard, north of Whyte Avenue.
