The planning reports are still out there, you can read them. The BRT was indeed deemed cheaper, but was projected to be insufficient for demand within 20 years of construction. There also wasn't loads of funding on the table at all. We though we could get 2/3 funding from the province and only got 1/3. That only came about after the decision was made to proceed with LRT in 2011.
