Even with a fence, that's an awful suggestion for the placement of a bike lane. Would you want a bike trail right between two activite freight tracks that had freight trains every 10 minutes even if it had a fence? Lol.
We put MUTs next to roads all the time. Roads are WAY more dangerous than the ION right of way...hell. The region wants you to bike WITH buses on Duke st...coming every 1-2 minutes.
But you think it's unsafe to be next to the ION right of way? This is the kind of broken safety thinking that gets us murder lanes next to an LRT that is restricted to 10-40 km/h under the limit of cars right next to it.
