Not great frequency, but that's true of the mountain in general. Penny Lane appears to be sandwiched between Stonechurch and Rymal lines, with connections to downtown Burlington via the Parkdale, which loops at "Meadowlands East." Not loads in the way of super-walkable amenities in the immediate vicinity, at least compared to downtown. PL is wedged between Saltfleet District HS and Satellite Golf, a five-minute bike-ride from the Elfrida LCBO/Beer Store and a 10-minute bike ride from generic fare like Silvercity, Indigo/Starbucks, Booster Juice, Kelsey's/Milestones, etc as well as sui generis entries like the Starlite Drive-in or the Eramosa Karst CA. I guess you could do worse.
