ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(07-03-2016, 10:25 PM)danbrotherston Wrote: The multi-use trail along Caroline has been started, this is looking south from William.  Unfortunately they are finishing it in concrete instead of asphalt, which makes it look like a big sidewalk.  I hope some signage will be provided to make clear it is actually a MUT.

Is it really a MUT? And if so, what is it that makes a multi-use trail a multi-use trail?

Edit: I just haven't seen any MUT's around that weren't asphalt. I think concrete is a nicer material. Although I don't like the joints, I think it weathers nicer than asphalt. But if a wide sidewalk of any material can be considered a multi-use trail, and many people ride their bicycles on the sidewalk, the definition of what is a MUT becomes a philosophical question.
