ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
3/6 - Saturday, August 27, 2016

Nothing was happening on Ottawa (other than the other "half" got paved), and the crossovers at both KCI and Cameron Heights haven't begun installation yet, so no photos from either of those locations.

   
At the end of Borden, while no track has gone in yet (work here was to start this week), the duct bank is now in place.  I'm most curious how this curve will look, when complete - it's a bit tricky, because it's a transition from embedded track to ballasted, and will also need a restraining rail because r<150m.

   
The embedded track curve at Allen/King is now poured.

   
Allen platform

   
Willis Way now has its overhead canopy in place.

   
Another shot of the Willis Way station.  The far side of the platform will serve as a platform for buses as well (transfer point).
