Going past GCI, sure that makes sense, but then right downtown Galt? There's barely enough room for 2 automobile lanes, how do they possibly expect to fit 2 LRT lanes?
The original 2011 proposal only had a single (bidirectional) track in central Galt - which would make for very tricky timing arrangements. I don't know if they ever came up with an alternate option.
The original-original turned off Water at the railway station to meet the GO CP trains, then briefly on Dundas and finally down to Main along what is now the Mill Creek Trail (not to be confused with the Mill Run Trail, which was the Preston–Hespeler line.)
