I think it could be feasible. It would also benefit Halifax in the Long term as the population grows and spreads outwards.
Just start it out small at first. Maybe like a trial run, on a short distance, to see how many actually use it. Then expand it from there, adding stops etc. I'm not sure about how much the fares would cost the riders, but I'm sure it wouldn't be a large amount.
So it would be good, to have a system that could reach out to a greater area and faster service. Buses are for the inner-city commute etc. But this light rail could stretch out further. Plus I'm sure in today's world with the concern of pollution etc. This would fit in just fine.
I'd like to see this project take off. But I'm sure it will not be for awhile.
