    No. There's a spur immediately west of the overpass. https://goo.gl/maps/d3byRA8fSSVVjT1t6

    Good luck in the traffic jams caused by the hairpin in Belfountain: https://goo.gl/maps/5DqDD7ySRsBqotjz9

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    I had a trip take 4 hours a few years ago when the Kitchener -> Union express was delayed over 2 hours by weather related equipment delays. I was very happy to get off the train that morning.I was very thankful I had a decent data plan at the time. But having only 5 hours in the office that day...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    2011: https://goo.gl/maps/ifvK8MkFVZk9CCZH8 2020: https://goo.gl/maps/ChKiSLYeaaqKtkFT6 Maybe fewer wires overall than Finch, but still the same concept.

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Waterloo region paid for the hydro lines to be buried so the LRT could travel along the corridor. https://goo.gl/maps/xc4EKMhTcFTodWM68

    I saw a similar concept in France: https://goo.gl/maps/cd7BfdKxWQGTAxJU8

    In England I saw a service centre that spanned the highway. I didn't go up to see if any services were on the bridge, but it's pretty wide: https://goo.gl/maps/CYBRMceX9QpEKR9C8

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    A few years ago, I was running along this path to catch a train with the ridiculously short connection time provided by GRT (4 minutes if the stars aligned, typically much less) and ripped my jeans jumping the barrier in the parking lot. Not a great experience overall.

    Likely just outside of the map. I think it's safe to assume there will be a way to get down to the same level as the MUT that's being built over there.

    The SB Ion will be accessible by a bridge to be built alongside the rail overpass. The north platform will be accessible through a tunnel at Waterloo Street. Source: site plan / traffic flow in the drawing package: https://www.engagewr.ca/king-victoria-transit-hub

    There was an iXpress that was scheduled to arrive just in time for the 6:05 GO express, but I typically found myself running from the stop to the train with generally less than 30 seconds to spare. GRT has since removed this trip.

    The Station street / Chemaushgon Road intersection is very confusing if you've never been there before. I worked at one of the Ontario Travel Information Centres in my younger years and was trying to explain to a group how to get to a camp past the airport. I think I left them more confused...

    Have all the MTO electronic signs gone, for the most part, travel time information only since Dumpster Fire took office? The one on 7/8 in Kitchener used to be primarily public safety messages (arrive alive, wear a seatbelt, etc), but since late 2018/early 2019, it's been travel times only...

    Sometimes I love AI subtitles: "first we have to complete bacon course". I agree. Bacon /always/ comes first.

    Preferred designs of the transit hub are available and will be put out for public input: https://calendar.regionofwaterloo.ca/Council/Detail/2020-01-14-0900-Planning-and-Works-Committee/cc792a48-7b30-4261-ae7d-ab3b01030622#page=102

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    The gap will go from exit 282 (Hespeler) - exit 320 (25). Pending Dumpster Fire, the stretch from Hespeler to Townline road (286) was supposed to be widened next.
