ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(09-04-2018, 05:51 PM)KevinT Wrote: Sadly this doesn't surprise me, especially given the location -- that section has seen a lot of weird interactions.  A video posted to the Facebook group last winter (can't find it now for looking) showed someone shaking their fist and getting rather 'animated' the first time an ION went through there with its police escort, and I've personally witnessed similar behaviours from the residents and hangers-about at the House of Friendship during other testing.  It's where they had to remove a padlock from the overhead wiring before testing could proceed several months ago, and I called GrandLinq myself one morning this summer (or maybe it was the police non-emergency number, I forget) to report concrete debris that I spotted placed on the rails here.   Sad

I am wondering, in retrospect, if they should have chosen a different route other than that part of Charles. I can see a lot of issues cropping up daily in that area.
