Doesn't that reinforce the case for the tunnel under Sparks, though? If the downtown infrastructure will eventually accommodate 2 and possibly even 3 LRT lines, wouldn't the tunnel make more sense to minimize potential surface level disturbances and to maximize capacity and reliability for that section?
