They should build the bus loop closer to the LRT station at Humber College...

There will probably be some rumbling closer to opening date. The latest Brampton Transit business plan basically states they're going to move the 511 Steeles Zum to meet up properly with the LRT.They should build the bus loop closer to the LRT station at Humber College...
Not as much as the Crosstown stops.Omg...
The shelters needs upgrading for winter
Although I understand that demand on Finch is very local, I would still like to see Driftwood or Jane, Duncanwoods or Pearldale and Stevenson or Albion removed.
The same refrain appears with every arterial LRT plan.
The stops you mentioned all have 2 or all 3 of: high density housing, significant underdeveloped land, and bus routes. If you ride the bus through lower-income areas like this, especially off-peak, you see all kinds of school kids, moms-with-strollers, and seniors with mobility issues making shortish local trips. Taking away their transit to save commuters a minute or two isn't all that fair.
This plan already has virtually the same stop spacing as the Bloor subway line between, say High Park and Pape, with fewer entrances. It's not Eglinton West by any stretch of the imagination. I think all of the stops will be well used.
I am sure they will be used. However, the stops I mentioned are pretty close by and I am sure that transit users can walk an extra hundred meter for the greater good. Having stations close by would mean that the LRV cannot reach very high speeds in that section. I am not calling for an express train, I am just calling for a few(three) unreasonably close stops to be removed. Take a look a map and you will see.The same refrain appears with every arterial LRT plan.

I'm amazed how much Finch west looks like Berlin in those renderings.
