Walking in Waterloo Region

Anyone want to explain what the engineer who designed this was thinking?

Here is the location: https://www.google.ca/maps/@43.4740431,-...6656?hl=en

I suspect that the engineer was thinking "Lodge St is a suburban industrial road, and needs to support trucks turning on to Regina."  And it's probably been over 40 years since anyone gave it another thought.

A reasonable explanation, but even the stop line, which has been repainted numerous times is past the curb cut, and that's been painted recently.  This section was also just repaved last month (of course they curbs were only patched, not replaced).

For the other, yes, the pickup truck has completely blocked, for no reason whatsoever, the ramp which enables people in wheelchairs to continue on King St. past the construction.
