I'm from Kitchener, and both my husband and I left our input with the Preston route. If your primary objective is moving people, that's a no brainer. Every time we drive through Preston, I think about how European it would feel with a tram running down the centre of it, picking up and dropping off people. They could really use the uplift.
However, the primary objective, sadly, is not moving people - the primary objective is development. So the region told the RT team they're not allowed to touch the 24 alignment; it absolutely must go down 24/Hespeler road. How it enters at Pinebush and exits at Delta is up for debate, but that's 100% set-in-stone.
A shame, really.
