ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
What's the expected dwell time at each station in between the terminals? Are there other tasks that are expected to occur at each end such as a rudimentary cleaning (eg garbage)? I could also imagine that in a scenario where only one LRV arrives at a double platform, that the three minute dwell time would allow passengers the chance to switch platforms if they discover that they are waiting on the wrong side of the tracks.

Finally, I can imagine that the approach in the service agreement was, "Write everything down so there isn't any mistake or misunderstanding." If passengers complain about the length of the dwell time (or other operational matters), both the Region and GrandLinq can point to the agreement and say, "If it fits in this standard, then everything is working fine."
