There's also zero possibility for walk-up passengers either. Tomken and Central Parkway aren't much better. The subdivisions to the south face away from the stations, with long walks.
It's also really poor planning to make the bus connections as difficult as they are at places like Central Parkway - it's a bit of a hike to the southbound buses, having to cross two legs of a T-intersection (and have to press the beg-button), and walk further because Mississauga put the bus stop in a bus bay meant to keep the buses out of the way of cars when stopped. The bus stops should have been under the busway, as close to the station entrances as possible.
Dixie is a bit better for this; the stations serving the Airport Corporate Centre don't do a bad job. Hopefully bus connections at Renforth Gateway are as seamless as possible.
