Great question! To further quote the report:
Quote:Prior to going into service it is also necessary to install certain specialized equipment. As part of the Project, GrandLinq is responsible for ensuring the finished vehicle integrates seamlessly with the built system. On-board equipment includes radios, antennas and on-board systems to control gates, crossings, and traffic signals. This also allows the vehicles to communicate with ION Control Centre. With this equipment, ION can run at service speeds and at consistent times throughout operations.
Which really confirms that this particular delay is not due to BBD, but either Grandlinq or the region.

I don't think we're quite yet at the point of needing a Phase 3 thread. Once the region says something about it publicly that may change, though.
