ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
Since we discussed it a few weeks ago, I thought I'd mention it - there's now a petition out for the folks on Traynor asking for a pedestrian overpass:

Install an LRT Pedestrian Crossing to Fairway Rd from the Traynor-Vanier Neighbourhood

Not a bad idea to try, but just not so sure about the execution of the request. I don't feel it's directed at the right people, and with this being a P3, asking for changes now would open up a huge can of worms - the consortium could charge whatever they want and say it will take a ridiculous amount of time and there would be nothing the Region could do. It'd be best, I feel, to wait until the project is complete, then look at what can be done. Same idea as the ugly fences in Waterloo Park.

...and I can't let it slip: it makes my skin crawl every time I see someone misspell GrandLinq.
