ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(08-16-2015, 10:31 PM)BuildingScout Wrote: I think they will need mechanical barriers in all cross intersections. Particularly along King when left turns are allowed. Unless they do this, people will try to start a turn left into the red light at the same time as the train is coming.
Is that not the point of the red light? To stop people from turning?

Street running LRT in Seattle, Portland, and LA manage to survive without crossing bars at all conflict points.
