From where the current bus station is located, people can WALK into downtown. Even better than being transit friendly. Moving the bus terminal to the Via station is the dumbest thing we could do. It serves no functional purpose, otherwise the market would've looked after its intermodal needs long ago. It is a misplaced planning fantasy that will end up annoying bus users and really inconveniencing them. I'm strongly opposed to moving Greyhound out of downtown.
