CS-v4 LTc5:Access to quality transit

Shuttle Bus to Station Still OK?

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...).  

Thanks! - Brian

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

Exactly

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