Well, I think you'd have to consider the cost savings from such a maintenance facility and weigh that against the negative impact of not having the first phase of LRT going to Mac - which is from what I understand - the most used transit stop in the City. At most these people would take your proposed LRT from James to Dundurn at which point they would have to transfer onto buses for the remainder of their journey to Mac - necessitating the creation of a major transit terminus at Dundurn - where there is no room for such a terminus - and providing reduced operational savings as less buses can be redirected to other parts of the HSR system.

I think the proposal to limit the LRT to Dundurn - and not go all the way to Mac - is the most negative part of your proposal.
