Urgent Discussion on LRT & Formation of a Working Group

Light Rail Transit (LRT) was a hot topic at our Annual General Meeting. The QTN Community Association invites you to discuss how the LRT will impact you and your neighbours. Please come share your views and opinions at an open discussion.

A working group will be formed to engage the city and our councillor. Please see the QTN LRT Flyer for more information.

  • When? February 2nd, 2017 at 7:00PM
  • Where? Frank Ryan Park Field-House
  • Why? The City is planning for the LRT to cut through Connaught Park. There will be significant short- and long-term impacts on the park and neighbourhood.

If you are unable to make the meeting and want more information or to be part of the working group please contact qtncommunity@gmail.com.
