I am having trouble understanding the final design plan for the Laurier-Waterloo Park station.
This is a view from the former path looking north toward Seagram. It looks like they are building a stormwater pond right where I would expect steps down from the station to the path - based on the last drawings I saw - or a regrading to provide for a ramp instead.

No 6-month update in the council agenda for next week either.
Also, I am wondering if the King underpass will be able to meet the 18 month closure window. I think it closed March 23, 2015 which means they expected it to reopen in September of 2016, but they haven't even started yet. The Weber underpass was 18 months of steady work (June 2013 to Dec 2014) and still has incomplete elements nearly a year later, and the King job seems much bigger and more complicated, although the need to keep it open like they did for Weber is not present which should speed things a bit.

Everyone move to the back of the bus and we all get home faster.
