FAQs about LTc5 :

What are the criteria for whether we are allowed to count future or planned transit stops?

Our project is located in a place without any existing or planned formal transit networks. How can we achieve this credit?

What’s the difference between a commuter rail, light rail, and heavy rail transit system? I’m having trouble figuring out how to categorize the different types of transit serving my project.

Would a university or corporate campus shuttle service count towards this credit?

NC-v4 LTc5:Access to quality transit

Connecting a bus to a Rapid Transit Stop

Hello,

We have a project located a little over 800m walking distance from an Rapid Transit Stop. 

However, there are bus routes within a 400m walking distance.

One route specifically ends at the the Rapid Transit Stop.

With this said, we are wondering if it would be acceptable to connect a bus line to a rapid transit stop as the transit stop exceeds the 800m walking distance by a few meters. 

Thank you.

Hi Lindsay, The credit language was rewritten in v4 to exclude the shuttle to transit approach, so this is technically not acceptable. it sounds like the project is well served by other forms of transit in addition to the rapid transit stop, so I'd say it's worth submitting, but I wouldn't count on any additional points for the rapid transit rides.
