The list of benefits is extensive for all residents in communities on Vancouver Island.
As we all know, the date fast approaches for the very important decision to be made on the the rail corridor. We stand to lose this vital link up and down the Island.As density and growth continue all over the Island, so does the production of waste, household, construction, green, and kitchen.
Special capacity cars would be loaded on sidings and then made into freights, that would be hauled in the off times, typically night moves. Landfill is just so archaic a method of dealing with the growth of waste. Pardon to the trucking industries, as some loss of work will ensue, but hey, there will just be different jobs for some.
People moving up and down the Island, efficiently and comfortably, in typically daylight hours, or when the system allows for passing. Sure, there would need to be many partners to achieve this goal, but with good intentions, intelligence and the moxy to make things happen, this is achievable.
