General Township Updates and Rumours

Makes sense to extend it already, Breslau such a rapidly growing suburb of the city. An extended Ottawa Street and a bridge over the river would also be great for public transit. It'd provide a much more direct route across the river to growing suburbs over there, meaning you could have something like the 204 (or whatever number it is) cross that, go up Woolwich and back down Victoria. Or a more localized bus route could be created which would be good for the Grand River North neighbourhood. I don't think they have any bus service. It'd also be good for first responders, connect a lot of businesses and cut off some time it takes to get to the aiport.

A bridge over Ottawa could also be useful whenever we build another LRT line...reclaim that old quarry area and zone it for high density development, run it over the river to connect to the airport then Breslau/Breslau GO then to downtown and so on. :'P

While we're at it how about we send the LRT down to Maple Grove then, stops for Toyota and all that industrial area, then just over to Hespler where you can cross the Speed River on the bridge it's wide enough for a set of tracks, then just a guideway like they're doing for the Hurontario LRT across the 401 and half the expense to get to Cambridge is solved. No more Grand River and Speed River Bridge, no Bridge across the hwy 8 ramp, no bridge across Fairway, no bridge across the CN/CP tracks in Preston. You're making all the people of Preston happy and connecting the industrial to some transit for once.

I also bet that people would be okay with the LRT crossing the Grand River on Ottawa since they're getting another road connection. Seems like a perfect way to appease everyone.
