ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(11-28-2019, 10:46 AM)robdrimmie Wrote: One of the blue signs with a white chevron, pointing up, has been added to the left side of the track approaching Mill Station towards Fairview, in the stretch between Ottawa and Borden. It's a fairly new addition, I saw it last night for the first time, but I hadn't been on the tram since last Friday so I'm not sure when it was added.

While on the train I thought that perhaps there was a slight climb there, so I played around with Google Maps' cycling directions to experiment with elevations. Unfortunately the walkway that runs parallel to the tracks between Borden Ave and Ottawa isn't in Google Maps yet, so I don't have clear elevation information. Ottawa and Mill is a little bit lower than Mill at Borden Pkwy but a little bit higher than Ottawa at Courtland but in all cases it's only a few metres either way.

I have a feeling it has nothing to do with elevation and everything to do with snow clearing operations.
