ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
Drove through most of the Ion corridor at dusk just now! First time in a long time, not since the beginning of Winter. Very impressive seeing everything come along. Was surprised to see crews were working still at 7 on a Saturday night, and not just at the Dome pour either.

Noticed that despite embedded track having being poured almost up to Borden, and most of it before that having cured already, the track across Gaukel STILL is being heated. Is there a reason track crossing the road is taking so much longer than the track in front of the terminal?

Rebar for track has been laid on Charles starting at Benton.

All Traffic light poles are in at Cedar, and Cameron.

A single catenary pole was up at Stirling

Surprised to see no real movement on the embedded track on Borden. Some more placed, but not near pouring yet.

King past Wellington is looking very nice. Utility poles almost all complete.

Same with in front of GRH. Nice to see all traffic light poles in at the Pine and GRH entrance intersections!

Nothing of note North of John, seems. Didn't seem like any work has been done on the track in front of PI recently. They're getting close to Erb though, they must need to shut that down for utility relocation soon, don't they? If it's anything like Caroline, it'll take months. Surprised it hasn't been started yet.
