ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
Here's what I've been able to dig up, from memory of presentations of ATAC and from crawling through P&W agendas.
  • Ottawa between Alpine and Lackner is being entirely rebuilt in stages.
  • Lackner to River (2016), and River to 85 (2017) are already listed in the current construction projects
  • Pattandon to Imperial was meant to go earlier (this is the section that the Region got some flak over inadequate consultation, and a misguided suggestion to combine bike lanes with parking lanes). P&W Agenda link. Was planned for 2017. That's now listed as 2018 in current construction projects.
  • Charles to Pattandon (just past Mill) is ION.
  • The remaining section is 85 to Charles:
P&W agenda link. Scheduled for 2018-2019 construction. The widening people are wondering about will claim Corner Pub and the Farah's office, and likely some of the parking alongside City Cafe. The image below is not quite a plan view, but shows the expropriations.

Hope this helps!
