NC-v4 LTc5:Access to quality transit

Paired bus route service

Hi, Is it necessary for both stops to be within 400m of the site in order to satisfy the paired route requirements? There are a considerable number of one-way streets adjacent to our site resulting in paired routes being separated by a number of blocks. Thank you

Hi Francis, The Reference Guide does not specifically address this point, however, I don't think that it is necessary for both stops to be within the 400m in order to fulfill the paired route requirements, the transit service simply needs to offer a service in the opposite direction. The Reference Guide notes that if one transit lines has several stops within the 400m boundary, then only one may count toward compliance. Since only one of the stops from the transit service can be counted anyway, I believe the location of the opposite line won't be considered. Hope that helps!
