It was late and I couldn't tell if work was happening towards Albert, but it would make sense to improve connection facilities to the Ion stop.
Turns out it's not a MUT, just a sidewalk. A nice wide sidewalk... until it tapers down closer to Albert St, which seems incorrect, if this is supposed to be the main artery between Laurier and ION.
And also, it has this gem.
I see @citywaterloo us installing wider sidewalks on Seagram Dr near the @rideIONrt station. Lookin' goo--

I thought some of the zig-zagging sidewalks on King St N and University Ave were bad. This is beyond words.
The ones on King and University are at least realities of progressive development, this was built this way right now. What were people thinking.
As for MUTs, I'm not terribly torn up about it, Seagram isn't bad to bike on and has relatively little bike lane parking, its one of the few roads that's probably okay with bike lanes.
But oh man, that chicane.
