Under v3, it was possible for projects outside the 1/2 mile walking distance to train transit to meet the credit via shuttle service (public or private), as long as the shuttle was within 2 miles driving distance of the station. Is this still the case with v4?
I have a project in a Boston suburb that is 1.15 miles walking distance (with sidewalks) to a major transit hub. The owner would entertain hiring a shuttle service if there was a LEED benefit (he might do it anyway...).

Brian-
The v4 reference guide indicates private shuttles are no longer a compliant strategy- see page 97.

Does anyone know if a bus line within 1/4 wakling distance of the project that stops at a metro stop would count?
