ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
A bigger problem than people walking on the tracks will be cars turning into the LRT path. Intersections with streets will require full length level crossing barriers. Traffic lights won't be enough: people will still turn into the path of the oncoming LRT.

What is it with the obsession with monorails? why exactly is one rail better than two? Outside of the sci-fi random association with them there isn't much reason to go for single rails, which is why to this date they are still so rare.
