ION Phase 2 - Cambridge's Light Rail Transit

There’s no valid reason for these costs and delays.

Also, if a train is 300% too expensive that means schools and hospitals and sewers are also 300% too expensive and then our society ends. It’s weird that nobody in power cares about this.

I wish someone had tracked the reasons for the various delays over the years. The most recent one was a Cambridge regional councilor tried to push for the terminus to get moved from Galt to Dundas, and that took us down a rabbit hole for a few months with new studies to confirm that people wanted the station in downtown Galt like it had always been proposed. It was totally a waste of time and money to arrive at the same conclusion we'd been at for years.
