About

This repo contains maps and resources from my proposal for an overhaul of public transit in Calgary.

Read more about this proposal here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SyxgfXDGrWfLdb-O2y3Dr1Dh2Pc6roHdbGsgMLN4z3Q/edit?usp=sharing

Getting Involved

If you want to contribute to this project, please join our discord: https://discord.gg/UzACXw9yCe. You are also invited to create GitHub issues if you just have small ideas, concerns, or suggestions!

I am particularly interested in getting in touch with people with the following skillsets:

  • Video editing
  • Transit/transportation planning
  • Urban planning
  • Sketching / creating concept art

I can also be reached via LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/joel-happ/ or twitter at https://twitter.com/JoelHapp

The Map

For best viewing experience, download the map and use a photo editor or viewing software. This map is too large for most computer screens or pieces of paper, but could be very legible on larger billboards at transit stations.

High Capital (Advanced++) Version:

How can I edit the maps?

Every map and resource here is a .pdn file. To edit them, you'll need Paint.NET on your computer. You can install Paint.NET here, but be careful to download the right app, as the website contains ads disguised as download buttons.

Every route exists on a separate layer of the pdn map file. You can modify one route without changing any others. The station dots also exist on a separate layer, along with other things like planning layers, and alternative backgrounds.
