ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(10-29-2015, 08:34 PM)Drake Wrote: Hespeler Road is already bad. Throwing a train into the mix there is not an improvement, but what do I know.

What is persuasive to me about a Hespeler Road alignment is that it has a lot of past-its-prime big box and strip plazas, whose owners would likely be quite willing to redevelop to maximize their revenue. And no one would miss what's there now. Plus, a lot of it could be built just on the far-too-large parking lots, without initially displacing the current uses. There's a lot less opportunity for transit-oriented development along Coronation.
