Also, I think people will use the LRT from Norhtfield/RT Park into Uptown as the lunch time express. There is a dearth of options for eating there and now you and your buddies can jump on the LRT, grab lunch at Nick and Nats or Beertown or Famoso and then head back to work in five minutes.
I hope the do a better job of creating connections in Waterloo than I have seen plans for so far. As I see it, point-to-point transit will be improved by ION, but without efficient transfers to GRT, overall it will be a worse experience than we currently have.
