Is the triangle next to the stop bar denoting a raised curb? If its similar to the Joseph ones that would offer a fair amount of protection. Still confused about the retirement home driveway though. Part of me wishes they had just made the lanes sidewalk height but I guess that would have cost more to raise the roadway vs. just partitioning the existing asphalt.
I personally think the connections to Church is really welcome. Joseph ending onto no other option W-E would have been a let down and, while Church is not the easiest traverse, it offers connections to the market and Krug by was of Cedar, which is a pretty important route to link to east Kitchener (as there a few ways over/under the 85, and this is the best one). I use that route all the time going out to the east side of town for cycling. Fingers crossed Benton gets some upgrades like Dan proposed and then it would be even more valuable and it would be nice if they added a signalized crossing at Benton for now.
