He then outlined <br />both the east-west and the north-south routes and possible alternatives, <br />explaining that in all likelihood, due to its central location, Santa <br />Aha would be involved during the initial construction period. <br /> <br />The Transportation Director discussed technologies and design of the <br />system, stating that the east-west route would be a surface route and <br />the north-south, elevated.
