ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

From the article: "I think about the subway system in Washington D.C." said John Long, Executive Director of Bike Houston, who was part of that group.  "They have lights embedded in the ground that light up when a train is coming into the station.  Could some signalization like that work here in Houston at the light rail platforms and crossing?"
