ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(03-07-2015, 06:19 PM)clasher Wrote: There's also little reason to build LRT or any mass transit on the Iron Horse trail, there's not really any destinations or trip generators along most of its length that aren't better served by King Street.

You are missing two very good reasons to build on the iron horse trail: it would be way cheaper and it already has the right of way.

I do agree with the rest of your comments, but again, is not like King St was ripe with possibilities either. In both cases most of the users will be there because the LRT was built there and not elsewhere. The same projects would have taken place along any routing of the LRT.
