ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

[Pheidippides]

I saw them installing these curb and reflective pieces today on both sides of King where the spur line rail crosses. I guess it is to try and stop people from driving/walking/cycling along the rails?

Incorrect. The Region sees this portion of rail as the unofficial connection from the Spur Line Trail to the Laurel Trail (that's why it is paved now), so walking and cycling along the rails won't be prevented or discouraged during the day.

That may be true between King and Regina, but between King and Caroline the designated route is south of the Ion rails on the brand new MUT that looks like a wide sidewalk.
