Please Please Please, dont spray paint over them !!!!

They'll be placed atop tall poles, no worries in this case.

Correction, that was in the proposal but in the end they have been placed at ground level. Hmm...

I've just noticed this map on the official site, confirming where bus connections can be made: https://www.grt.ca/en/about-grt/resource...5000px.pdf

In particular, it confirms the Ion LRT will be route 301, and Ion Bus 302. As we knew from the signs that went up, the replacement shuttles during LRT outages are 301R.

So for tomorrow's anticipated big announcement, are they going to either show it live anywhere or have a audio stream? I see they post the meetings on YouTube but I don't know if it's live there. And I can't go in person due to me working till 8.

Edit: when I visit their page in the YouTube app a lot of the meetings show streamed on x time so it looks like they stream them there.

they used to use a proprietary streaming platform for their meetings. They recently switched to using YouTube as it is cheaper and more device compatible

It is still atrocious that there are no connections at Waterloo Park.

[KevinL]

Nor any connections to the 12, 26, or 202. Madness.

Should be a 5 minute walk to the 12 at University of Waterloo, unless that's changing?

Damn that colour scheme is hard to read...

Can't believe we still have no connections at Laurier-Waterloo Park

Are we 100% sure they will stream here?

I mean, it's kind of a weird stop and there aren't any buses that go down Seagram Dr. There should probably be a shuttle to WLU.
