Not sure if it was mentioned already, but looks like the Conestoga Mall terminal is getting a reconfig. RFP has been issued.
Trips at the station in 2019 were up to 10,000/day, from 6,000 pre-LRT. The roadway and sidewalk capacity is insufficient, and much more pedestrian thru-traffic exists now due to ION.

Design to consider:
- Improvements to the pedestrian amenities/facilities including, sidewalks, crosswalks, street furniture (i.e. benches, trash receptacles, and bicycle parking racks) etc.
- Illumination Improvements;
- Signage Improvements throughout the station;
- Coordination involved as part of potential utility relocations as well as electrical and communications servicing for lighting and bus shelters
- Landscape enhancements where feasible;
- Couple other things that aren't as important
