ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(02-01-2017, 09:25 PM)nms Wrote:   I'm not sure what the protocol would be if the signals stopped working while the LRT was in service.  Would the LRV have to wait for a police officer or some other GrandLinq official to stop the road traffic before proceeding?

I imagine it would depend on the traffic conditions and the actions of the drivers on the cross-street. If it's obvious the signals are out (power failure, etc) and the drivers are proceeding cautiously, the LRV driver may just need to sound a horn, etc. and proceed with caution themselves. If not, then yes, they may need assistance like you describe.
