ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

These are proposed changes, so luckily not final, and I'm not happy about some of them.  Mainly 7 UW (if the new 92 runs early enough and connection are timed properly then I it's fine,) and the 201 Which was shown in the ION planning maps to extended to Fairview park mall, not down Manitou on to Connestoga College (203 would covers this if they stick to the ION maps.)  Extending the 201 all the way there will only cause more delays just like the 200 has had since adding a Sportsworld stop (good stop, but poorly implemented.)

On Page 25, i think they mean revised Route 8 in top corner, not 12.

Personally, I think they should wait until they have a full year of data from the new Presto style cards.  That should allow them to better understand how people are using the transit, and what connection they make.

You'll find a few pages of discussion about it in the GRT thread!
