Cycling in Waterloo Region

And if you can't make the ramp trench curve like the current asphalt MUT does because it would be too close to the building, then you lose the West Ave. entrance to that parking lot. Either way those parking spots at the back side of the dim sum restaurant are gone because cars can't drive over the trench.

I say the trench could curve, although presumably pouring the concrete walls would be more expensive on a curve.

However, if we’re going to propose something this big, might as well extend the tunnel under West Ave. as well. Of course then it’s really quite long. Actually elevating it to fly over the streets might be less unrealistic, although still a major project.
