PRT idea percolating for Calgary

I've spoken about PRT before. The concept is that 'last mile' public transit makes rapid transit even more effective and it's not very expensive to implement.

Just recently, someone gave a presentation showcasing 3 areas where PRT could benefit Calgary. I particularly like the idea of tying 2 C Train stations, Foothills Medical Centre, the motel village, the U of C and the sports facilities. If that included the area where the Children's Hospital is, it would be perfect.
