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

interpolation

hi guys i have a question i'd be happy if you can help me with it our project is around 850 meters far from a crowded subway station that can help us achieve up to 5 points but since the distance is more than 800 meters so i hope to be able to get some points using interpolation do you know if we can use that or no?do you have experience in this area?

Hi Sepideh, Are you measuring from the closest functional entry of your building? The distance requirement is typically pretty firm but if you feel your project still meets the intent, it might be worth investigating opportunities for alternative compliance paths that would be appropriate for your location.

Thanks for answering i appreciate that And yes we used another functional entry and it reached to 804 but i hope 4 meters wont be such a big deal Also we realized that one of our bus stations is station for 4 buses with different routs do have to count it 4 times?

Hi Sepideh, 800 meters is the requirement so if you are beyond that, even by a handful of meters, your project does not meet. Are you measuring all options of walking distance? Perhaps there is a different walking path that could make the difference here for your project? And yes, count all bus stops within the required distance of your project.
