ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

Quote:LRT to Cambridge? Public meetings planned for extension south from Kitchener

[Mayor]  Craig is hoping the route will be altered from Cambridge to Kitchener that was contemplated in 2011 and currently hosts express buses.

He said putting trains on the section of the route travelling down Water Street, past Galt Collegiate Institute and under the bridge, will cause traffic management problems.

"There's some concerns there," he said. "I think we have to look at a new route and the public consultation may help map that out in a better way."

Wait a second.
Where the heck is Craig suggesting the LRT run instead? There are no obvious alternate routes down there. I imagine his concern is to maintain 4 general purpose traffic lanes through there.
