stage 3 is hypothetical. It appears on regional plans. I would think that it is a BRT

Ah, it's described in the City of Waterloo's 2020 Transportation Master Plan Update as post-2041, and entirely inside the City of Waterloo. Ira Needles/Erb to Conestoga Mall via University Avenue and King Street!

I would be interested in how passenger volumes at the KW airport have been trending lately. So many people I know are talking it up as a better alternative to Pearson.

Going up. I don't have hard figures, but they're in the middle of a facility expansion with new baggage claim and expanded departures lounge as well as a new long-term parking.
Flair has added a significant option and it seems people are taking advantage.

With Porter’s jets arriving soon, I’d love to see them serve Waterloo Airport too.

Maybe testing 2 car trains?

Ion frequencies are so low right now, wouldn't they be better off running higher frequencies first? 5 minute or even 7.5 minute frequencies would be a big improvement to service quality over the existing 10-15 minute frequencies.

ion was meant to be launched with 7.5 minutes , but bbd welding errors meant many trains had to be fixed. Meaning not enough trains for 7.5

It's under 1 person / year of labour at the end of the day.$100K though?

It's certainly possible, but seems odd to me. It's a pity they haven't responded to clarify. I'd suspect something signalling related.

When I was out in BC a number of people asked about flying out of Waterloo. A Waterloo-Abbortsford service would be great for budget travellers.
Just need a shuttle bus from the airport to the train station now.
