GRT 9401 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Why would they get rid of Shoppers to add two extra bays? Just cut down the tree's behind the terminal and add two extra stops behind the 3/22. The expansion would be for the 201 (so it doesn't have to share with the 33). True, but the stairs near the trees would have to be dealt with, and all the extra work to level out the road since there is a hill/slope around there.

Still probably less work then tearing down a Shoppers Drug mart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRT 9401 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 My friend was involved in a round-a-bout crash (the new one on Block Line @ Homer Watson) and was injured by a GRT bus that failed to stop for her :/ I heard the windshield of the bus also got damaged, anyone know what bus number ? Student hit by GRT bus at roundaboutA student was hit by a GRT bus this morning at the roundabout at Homer Watson Boulevard and Block Line. She was taken to Grand River Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, said Waterloo Regional Police spokesperson Olaf Heinzel. The crash occurred at about 8:45 a.m. and officers were still on scene at noon trying to determine cause. “This is the first personal injury collision that I’m aware of (at that roundabout),” Heinzel said. “We’ve had numerous fender benders.” There have been more than 20 collisions at the roundabout since it opened near the end of August. Critics warned that the placement of the roundabout so near St. Mary’s High School could put student pedestrians in danger. The Region of Waterloo, the school board and police worked with students at the beginning of the school year to train them on how to safely cross a roundabout. http://www.kitchenerpost.ca/news/student-h...-at-roundabout/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
