IMO, the permanance of the existing CCTT is obvious and no gov't will spend multimillions relocating it, if for no other reason their nepotism won't allow them to admit that the terminal probably should have been built further east but the gov't at the time messed up. That said, why should it take the construction of another LRT line way off in the indefinite future to secure a direct connection to DOY? It's understandable why the 202 avoids the detour, but we're not talking a surface bus connection here. Rather we're creating sustainable transit options for the MCC, ones that wouldn't require transfering onto another bus just to get around the focal Square One area. An underground ROW doesn't neccesarily have to follow the street grid either, so speed allowances can be achieved in this manner.
Also, while Hurontario intersects many of the routes that eventually feed into Square One (thereby passengers could transfer off to connecting services at an earlier point) these connections would occur on-street without the luxury of bus terminals (no large waiting area with seats, limited defense from the elements, no A/C, no washrooms, no vending, no payphones, no information/ticket purchasing facilities). Passengers will still demand the connection even if the detour adds 5 minutes to the overall commute because most trips through Mississauga are actually travelling east-west not north-south, hence Square One is likely the southbound end-point for folks coming in from the north and vice-versa.
