ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(12-07-2023, 04:09 PM)Rainrider22 Wrote: I have watched the Hayward crossing a number of times.  To me there is no sound reason to take as long as it does for advance warning and post train delay...  They can shorten those times up and make it more efficient.  There must be some rule that we are unaware of with respect to  timing and duration.

I was under the impression that the intersections that take a long time are the ones that are paired with a freight line. Hayward has the train yard right there. Same thing with why the Northfield Station lights and the Erb/Caroline/Bridgeport corner has such a big lead. I thought I heard that the requirements for freight train safety were basically imposed upon the ION since they run the same tracking.
