    We need it from Signal Butte in East Mesa to The Cardinals Stadium in Glendale to be honest.

    Have loved the light rail for years for my lengthy daily commute. Occasional gross or misbehaving people, like any public transport, but a clean and reliable system that is an asset to the area.

    Nice, now I can take the train to the Metrocenter so I can panhandle up there.

      The mall has been. They have been building this on the site for a bit. The mall itself is supposed to get re-developed.

    Wish they'd get rid of the advertising on the outside of the trains, it makes them an eyesore.

    The people who control these trains need 8 years of hard labor working for the railroad before operating these city trains

      actually, only 50 mil of city dollars were spent so the ROI is pretty great especially because a new 1 billion dollar investment is already happening along to track from private developers
