I think you mean, "Looks like the City of Waterloo didn't bother coordinating the detail design of their project with the LRT, which was finished first."
OK, it might have been a two-sided failure.
But the project to change King St. north of the tracks has been in the works for a long time. Just because the actual construction on the LRT part happened first doesn’t mean its designers get a free pass on coordinating with other projects which were actually happening at the same time (not the construction itself, but the design, etc.).
Also the part north of the tracks is correct given the basic choice for King St. to be two lanes only. The part south of the tracks only makes sense if you assume that four lanes will narrow to two right there, which Grandlinq could easily have checked was not the case.
