The Regional Municipality of Waterloo is proposing a
rapid transit system to enhance transit service in high-demand transportation
corridors and to guide and manage long-term growth within the Region.
Stage 1 of the rapid transit system consists of light
rail transit from Conestoga Mall to Fairview Park Mall and adapted bus rapid
transit from Fairview Park Mall to the Ainslie Street Terminal.
As part of the Ontario Regulation 231/08 Transit Project
Assessment Process, the Region’s rapid transit team is hosting three public
consultation centres. Information will be available at the centres regarding
potential impacts that the rapid transit project may have on the
environment. Public comments and
feedback will be collected at each centre.

First United Church, 16 William Street West, Waterloo
Wednesday January 25, 2012, 3 to 8 p.m.
