ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(10-10-2019, 08:15 AM)MidTowner Wrote: It's been well over three months of service, and apparently there are still vehicle reliability/automatic control/or maybe some other issues that haven't been disclosed that is preventing Ion from running at the frequency specified in the project agreement.

I'm venting a little about that, but I'm curious if I'm missing some method of communication that GRT is using to provide updates? Does anyone know if we have received any recent info about what the specific problem is and when it's expected to be solved?

All that we've had is Record stories. I think they were pretty clear though, that the main limiter is vehicle availability due to work being done on them. There was a long list of things that were considered non-critical for launch, but which Bombardier was still required to address about the vehicles. All that work is still ongoing.
