Canadian Pacific, Calgary Transit and Communities Work Together on Joint Clean Up
Calgary Alberta - The combined efforts of Calgary Transit,
Canadian Pacific and volunteers will see the railway right-of-ways in south Calgary
receive a good cleaning on Saturday morning.
Rain or shine, the clean up event organized by Canadian Pacific and
Calgary Transit will see more than 50 volunteers working together to clean up
litter on the right-of-ways between Heritage and Shawnessy CTrain Stations.
"I am so pleased that everyone is working together to look after our
community and keep everything safe and clean," said City of Calgary Alderman
Diane Colley-Urquhart. "It's everyone's responsibility to pitch in and help."
"It is fantastic to have so many stakeholder groups working together not
only on the cleanup but to raise awareness about the negative effects
littering has on our environment," said Grete Bridgewater, Director of
Environmental Management Systems for Canadian Pacific.
Media are invited to attend the kick-off safety briefing with Alderman
Colley-Urquhart at the Shawnessy CTrain Station at 10:00 a.m.
