I don't imagine the accessibility will be terrible forever, but currently it's not great. I do think there's already a mini bus that has a stop in the center, but don't quote me on that. Otherwise the 184 does go right by it.

EDIT AGAIN:

EDIT: oops, my bad, Gorman is actually just on the north edge of this proposed development -- http://www.edmonton.ca/transportation/ets/lrt_projects/north-lrt-study.aspx -- in the same way as Clareview is on the north edge of the current strip mall area including Superstore/Future Shop thru Walmart... For some reason I thought Gorman was closer to 167 Ave.

Actually upon second look, you can see how distant the LRT station is planned to be, pretty damn far to the east from even the edge of the Manning Power Centre:

According to http://www.camdevcorp.com/images/uploads/Manning_TC.pdf the MPC would extend to the east to 34 Street ... But the Gorman LRT station would be (based on PDF above) around 29 Street and maybe 157Ave ... a quick estimate via Google Maps looks like that's maybe 1km, if not more ... and imagine during winter... (by comparison, current Clareview to Future shop is less than 200m)

OH damn, on the other side of fort road? That's a bit harsh. They'd have to have a bus go back an forth, regularly and often.

Mr. Analog

I'm going to check outside around lunch, I was talking to my neighbour when I took the trash out and it sounds like they may get somebody to do the sidewalks.

If that's the case then I'll let you guys know

I'm having a really bad start today too, so it's put me off, but I also want to get out and see the movie!
