Walkway

edit

In 1994, a walkway and skyway was added from the Terminal Tower station to Gund Arena,

I edited this sentence, but the more I think about it, is "walkway and skyway" redundant? The RTA calls it the "Walkway to Gateway" on their map, but it is also an elevated covered walking bridge, so I thought skyway would be more appropriate. To me, "added a walkway" sounds like they just put in a sidewalk. Or maybe I'm just thinking too much. :) But as they say... "be bold," so I was. --Birdhombre 21:35, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Interurban

edit

If you look up the definition of an "Interurban" and look up the history of the Shaker Heights Rapid, then the Blue and Green lines are definitely "Interurban" whereas the Waterfront extension is "light rail" but not "Interurban". GCRTA only says "light rail" even though "Interurban" is technically more correct/specific (from a functional view). Accordingly revising "light rail" to "interurban" where appropriate.

Nova Bus 2001

edit

The 2001 (21**) buses from Nova Bus have a picture and a reading that this "will be the last time Cleveland deals with Nova Bus". That seems like an official statement to me, and I never saw any announcement like that from RTA. I understand something like "it was the last time RTA has dealt with Nova Bus" (there have not been further Nova Buses since then), but the way it stands now, it does not seem correct (and I doubt that the "citation needed" will be met).

History

edit

Granted that CTS sold a number of its PCC cars to Toronto in 1952, does anyone have a source for info to the effect that a small number of those units were repatriated for use on the former Shaker system prior to the renovation of the Blue and Green lines?

Euclid Corridor Project section size

edit

This section is just too large, being an unduly large portion of the article. The Health Line has it's own article, where much if not most of the background detail belongs. Plus there's a decidedly promotional tone to the text as currently written, listing all sort of supposed benefits of the buses used and the construction. I plan on slashing it down in size and making the remaining text far more NPOV. Maybe need to check the Health Line article to make sure that the non-NPOV tone is not present there as well. oknazevad (talk) 02:38, 14 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
