All those median brt things will be 50 or 60 kmh (they didn't actually know). But "it's all about service." Okay fair enough.
The north st boniface route was dropped due to land issues. "The railway is not playing nice" they said. Piss off they have the land.
Seems like a big waste of time.

I can almost get the SW BRT line but the Eastern Corridor never made sense, it would be busy twice a day at the rush hours but other than that crickets, why not just increase the number of seats/buses on the arterial routes which is a problem now already.
Sorry public transportation geeks but Winnipeg has neither the critical mass for extensive dedicated busways nor the economy to support them! The more I think about it this whole BRT deal is a farce and hardly worth the cost.
