ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(03-30-2017, 08:56 PM)dunkalunk Wrote: Canard, this may be what you're interpereting from current conditions, but it's not what it will end up like. No trail connection between Wes Graham Way and Phillip existed previously. This is what is actually planned from 2013 documents. If anyone has anything more recent from an offical source, please share. I wasn't able to find anything detailed from the City of Waterloo site.

That is by far my favourite link I've seen here so far. That's a huge trove of information. Sadly much of it seems to be a huge trove of wishful thinking, it's amazing how different some things look from the plans. Some things (Waterloo Park) look much better than the plans, some things (R&T Park) appear worse. Still, it's not done yet. Very sad to see that the renders make things like no/small curbs, smaller poles, lack of gates, all look far more pedestrian scale. Even things like bricked crosswalks look great in the render, and make a road look more pedestrian oriented.
