ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

Edit - After looking at the Functional Design Plans, I think what's happened is the Left Turn Lane is just painted way, way too far ahead:

Well! That explains the curb cut on the right. That's a crosswalk, folks! They painted the turn lane right through the crosswalk. Sigh.

Edit:  I took a closer look at the picture and it's not a curb cut at all. In fact it looks like the crossing isn't there at all, but has been moved up closer to the intersection. Looks like a design change, but it doesn't solve the squeezed lane problem. Hard to figure out what here is actual intent and what is oversight.
