That transfer point is supposed to be online for the Fall schedule in 9 weeks. You gotta wonder what they're waiting for. While we're in the subject, the roadway by the centre island looks very narrow. I think there's a similar island on the other side with concrete pillars at the corners. I hope they don't underestimate the extra width and turning radius that buses need compared to cars.
My understanding is that something was underestimated. Someone recently tried to take a bus through that intersection either turning onto or off of that laneway and it didn't work. It may be a back to the drawing board issue. Among other issues, there is not enough space between the tracks and the Ring Road for a bus to wait its turn to enter the 4-way stop intersection without fouling the LRT tracks.
