The Green Line will be a 20 km LRT line beginning at a maintenance facility in Shepard and heading north towards the city centre, where the line will be underground (2026). Unlike the two existing lines, the new line will be operated with low-floor vehicles. In a later stage, a northern extension along Centre Street is planned (total lenght 46 km).
