ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
I did a quick drive-by of a good chunk of the route tonight.  Some notes:
  • Bus-Only Signs in front of the Kaufman Lofts and just North of Victoria are weird.  My guess: Temporary until better ones can be made?  The "Keep right of the Divider" sign is gone.
  • 25 km/h signs are up on Charles between Water and Victoria.  Curiously, some of them are facing the wrong way.
  • Cameron Heights crossover is stagnant and hasn't changed for over a week - lots of trimming and welds to be done here.
  • No progress on the embedded track curve from Borden onto the Huron spur - disappointing.
  • Ottawa is open between Courtland and Charles, but be careful.  I turned onto it from Courtland and it quickly went back to a single lane - didn't open up to two lanes again until just before Nyberg, I think.  I might have missed a "No Left Turn" sign now that I type this out but I honestly don't recall seeing one, or a Do Not Enter sign anywhere.
  • No progress at Embedded Track Crossover at KCI, although it looks like they've dug a lot deeper here than the last time I was by.
  • High Voltage Signs have gone up for the underpass under Manulife on Charles.
  • On Northfield, it was hard to see but it looked like 2 ramps were closed, and 1 might have been open - but certainly not the "fully open" I was expecting to see.

Edit - Thank you Kevin!
