ION Phase 2 - Cambridge's Light Rail Transit
What If Stage 2 ION were a BRT and GO RER instead?

[Image: b27XMA8.png]

Features:

Bus
-Dedicated busway on South side of 401, industrial rail spur
-Queue jump lanes on Homer Watson Blvd, Hespeler Rd, River Rd Extension, and King St
-Intercity bus terminal moved to the 401/Highway 8 interchange

GO RER
-15 Minute frequency between Downtown Galt and Downtown Hespeler
-30 Minute frequency between Downtown Galt and Guelph

This would of course require the MTO to give up 2 lanes of the 401, so the dedicated busway would probably not happen
