Multiple slam dunk reasons to extend the blue line to Ballantyne (regardless of Pineville’s involvement or Matthew’s commissioners skepticism):

- ability of the area to densify
- as mentioned in the article, lower startup costs, which makes the project favorable when there is a limited pool of funds
All of this points to a higher ROI for the Ballantyne segment
