ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

As for Cameron Heights, yes, they are lined up. As for where crossings should be....they should be where pedestrians need and want to cross regardless of roads. Usually they follow roads because we rarely consider transportation routes without cars.

OK, now I understand.

I would say that crossings are also at roads because the pedestrian routes are sidewalks, which are immediately beside roads. That’s not to say we shouldn’t have more crossings at other locations where important pedestrian traffic routes meet the road, and more pedestrian routes which are not sidewalks, but crossings at intersections are natural as long as sidewalks are standard (and I think we want them to be standard in almost all situations).
