I totally agree with your position. Having the LRT running down Main Street would cause nothing more than utter traffic havoc.

The main street route is utterly without merit and should not be supported by the City of Brampton

The Main Street route makes no sense economically or in terms of the needs of our city.

This route on Main Street would destroy any hope of revitalizing the downtown core.

LRT up through the core of Main Street is a NO Go in my opinion. The people who support it are motivated for the wrong reasons. Their opinion is based on the information they have been fed, but have they questioned the sources of the information as to whether they are in the best interests of the city, I rather doubt it. Question the people who have presented them with the information they have been fed so as to determine why they promote ripping out the character of the city with their plan to put the LRT up through the historic portion of Main Street. I believe they will find that the reasons that may be given, are for their own interests which have nothing to do with what the residents are wanting, and that is that the LRT not be built north of Nanwood. If one reviews the LRT stops within the core, one will notice they are very limited, thus of limited benefit to anyone in the core. Though the reasons not to put the LRT through the core, any only one of them, is that the on street parking which benefits the current merchants will be reduced, or eliminated altogether. If Linda Jeffrey, Martin Medeiros, Paulo Ribeiro(Unifor Union), and the others who support the LRT through the core were to listen to the residents, they would realize that the project as planned is not acceptable, but do they care, I think not. . In closing today, I will provide comments presented to a concerned citizen by Paulo Ribeiro. "What shocks me the most is to have someone who opposing an investment that will bring good jobs, new opportunities, new business and development to our city! Which side are you on?" Is this a person who listens to the people who reside in this city, Nope, not in my opinion. Ribeiro is just another quack who supports the LRT based on what it will provide the members of his Union.

LRT should travel Commercial Route like Queen St. and "Not" on Residential Routes like Main St.

I am totally opposed to the LRT going through the Historic downtown. It will not be the great panacea they are trying to promote!

I strongly oppose the LRT as it will ruin the ambience of the downtown core and be a huge interruption to everyone and with zero benefit.

I don't understand why our city is constantly being ripped apart. Why can't certain things just be left alone?

What route do you wish from Steeles to the new hospital in order to continue along Queen E.

Because No, it is up to Brampton to "take one for the team" in implementing Metrolinx's plans.
