Walking in Waterloo Region

[KevinL]

I imagine this dates back to when Bleams was a simple country road with no sidewalks; the municiplaity was permitted road clearance, but at the time there were no sidewalks or need for them.

Years later, sidewalks are built, but must stop just short of the tracks on each side as there is no agreement covering them, and it's far too much hassle to get them added.

Another stretch of years later, sidewalks are recognized as vital for acessibility but this segment is still not bridged due to simple bureaucratic inertia. Such is the way of things.
