ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
The system has not been optimized even 3 years later. It absolutely CRAWLS between Mill and Fairway stations for no apparent reason. They STILL don't have a signal installed at the crossing that took years to get built. Crosswalks leading to stations still have beg buttons that have to be pressed to cross and those crosswalks are often blocked with snow and ice in the winter. Stations still have not had any improvements to their access except the least busy station at the RT Park.

The only thing they have improved is the payment system at the vending machines and they likely only did that because they were losing a lot of revenue from down time and them freezing. That being said I still love our little budget LRT  Big Grin
