WEM should be better than Davies since it's not a central platform station.

I expect WEM to be the busiest LRT station in the city within the first year.

Think it beats university?

I think the busing will still be big around the mall, and then because of the malls size, the train might still be a 20+ minute walk from your store vs driving to the right entrance. So I wonder if that’ll impact use.

WEM will be up there, but usurping university would be crazy.

Ooh this would be a fun bet. I’m leaning more towards University Station still being busier because the Capital Line would be better at attracting commuters because it’s fast.

The complaints in the comment section about the open drug use and disorder are correct. EPS does nothing.

Because every time police try to do something, some social justice warrior gets wind of it, they complain loudly about police being to 'mean', city hall then agrees with the social justice warriors. police back off. and then the same people complain police are not doing enough. the circle of life.

do you remember a few years ago when cibc did something to stop loiters outside their jasper ave branch and council and all the social justice warriors piled on. or how bout the time, last winter, when police started to clear encampments and the mayor got all upset. the city manager was fired as a result.

the current social justice group think is a big factor on why people avoid dt and transit. my safety and my families safety comes first. i know for a fact that a police officer told his wife to not take transit and that he won't allow his kids to take transit.

How do you know it is the same people making the complaints? I think you are making it up.
 
WEM station will be busy seven days a week and during the evenings 364 days a year. It could very well rival University in total yearly numbers. It still amazes me how University is busier than Century Park as it also is busy year round.

it's the same 'type of people' C'mon, don't be so like that. You know exactly what I mean.

No I don't know exactly what you mean. You have already changed your narrative from the same people to the same kind of people. Cliches and generalizing does nothing to further the conversation. The social Justice warrior who complains about the police actions is not the same senior citizen who is terrified about riding transit who voices their concerns.
