I don’t know whether to be pleased that they are doing it, or annoyed that they dismissed that suggestion from me when I made it at a public meeting about the trail before construction (and started blathering something about pedestrian crossovers instead). It obviously should be done; and even if later an official crossover or signals are installed, the island would still make sense.
Now I just hope they build it big enough. Anybody want to start a pool on whether it will actually be big enough? Recent precedent is not encouraging.
Don't be annoyed. If there's one thing Waterloo likes to do is ignore smart ideas, construct the project without them, and add them afterwards.
