ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

Great analysis.  I'm not too familiar with the area or the movement patterns, but it sounds like it's worth pushing for a better location.  Is it possibly worth pushing on the property owners on both sides to stand up and volunteer to have the pathway (for reasonable compensation of course).

The ultimate solution would be to put a trail on each side of the LRT tracks. Then the crossings could be placed anywhere without worrying about whether they “officially” connect to something appropriate — no matter where they went, they would connect two parallel trails. Unofficially, of course, they would be placed for optimum connectivity. I would prefer to see two or maybe even three crossings along that stretch.
