ION Phase 2 - Cambridge's Light Rail Transit
Stage 2 Report (starting at page 101):

http://calendar.regionofwaterloo.ca/Coun...ommittee/P&W%20Agenda%20To%20Print%20-%20June%2020,%202017.pdf#page101

Of note:

Quote:"The next round of public consultation for Stage 2 was to be held in late-2017. However, given the extra work required to examine options and detail results, this will be delayed. The project team will target early 2018 to bring the project back to the public for further comment and input."

Quote:"Additionally, broader consideration will be given to mitigation techniques such as running the LRT vehicles in mixed traffic with automobiles and not in its own right-of- way, considering one-way streets, and closing streets, while ensuring private access is maintained."

This is really cool, and I've posted links before - this is what the Gold Coast Light Rail (G:Link) does in Australia for a short section. It's really a clever solution and showcases the flexibility of LRT.
