CALGARY – A massive transit infrastructure project in Calgary is back on the agenda at City Hall Monday.

The city paused the Green Line because council wanted to finish its work with the Alberta government, which includes a provincial review of plans for the first phase of the mega-project.

We should learn more about the fate of the project after city council meets.

Construction was supposed to have already started, but now that could be pushed back to next year.
