This sentence from the conclusion is also a great read:

LRT for the B-Line is the clear winner in this BCR contest, but this is virtually a foregone conclusion to everyone involved in its planning. There are clear benefits to the City, even if required to contribute a portion of the project’s capital cost. LRT’s lower operating cost and great capacity to handle the high- volume of B-Line passengers provides significant ongoing benefits to the City, by reducing overall transit operating costs, subsidizing the HSR’s conventional bus service to outlying areas, or some combination of the these. If the City passes up the opportunity to build LRT on the B-Line, it is also passing up the opportunity for significant financial benefits.
