General Urban Waterloo Updates and Rumours

Good advice- though I don’t live in Waterloo, so the former doesn’t apply.

Out of curiosity, do you live near Erb or Bridgeport? I only ask because you’ve brought up the benefits to the adjacent neighbourhoods if they were converted back to two-way. That’s not an opinion I hear often.

I don’t live very close to either so I’m not personally impacted, but I’ve lived near terrible one-way streets in the past and know the drawbacks. I wonder if the people who live nearby (and who have the biggest stake) are strongly in favour of conversion or even generally realize it’s a possibility. I’ve rarely read anyone making the argument.
