It's being built partly at the behest of Fairview Mall, as they had concerns about park-and-riders using their parking lot. It also opened up space to rebuild the bus mall to be closer to the LRT station. (which was also something that Fairview wanted; the bus mall further away and not on their land)
Have any photos been taken of the Park and Ride? I'm curious to see it... is it just a surface parking lot or multilevel? Also how does it connect/interact with the station?
Surface lot. It will occupy the corner of the property facing the Fairway/Wilson intersection on the former Burger King and pert of the former Crabby's. The new bus arrangements will be on the Leon's-adjacent side. As the station is immediately alongside Leon's the other way, they all intersect well.
I think a layout diagram is in a PDF somewhere, but I don't have it handy. EDIT: Markster posted it on the next page.
