ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
I'm curious now; when they have all the "utility work" (ie water mains, sanitary, storm) to do on the roads that the track will be running along, what is it they're actually DOING? I had hypothesized that they would want no interruption to to Ion service at any point, and therefore no construction involving track removal. As such, they were probably replacing water mains et al to something permanent, that would't require ever being replaced.

Looking at the photos of Borden now, the road and curb seem to be relatively in the same place as before, and could still have the wet works running beneath the road with no interaction with the Ion track. So what are they doing for these many months per stretch of road regarding wet works?
