ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

The question is why. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen an attempt at an explanation. How was it “not possible” for the single track on King, for example, from Allen to the public square to be put in the middle?

How can it be a rule be a rule...then not a rule? Lol. The design of this LRT was just a complete shit show. I guess it's better than nothing...but I've travelled to dozens of countries in my life, visited countless cities with transit systems and ours is easily somewhere near the bottom of the totem pole. I hope the second line in Cambridge isn't as bad, though I'm not crossing my fingers.
