What makes you think it would happen after Stage 2? The only thing I can see in the TMP is the 2031 Network Concept and the Ultimate Network maps don't show a Park and Ride at Baseline; however, 2031 Affordable Network map (which is closest to Stage 2) does. The biggest differences (with respect to Baseline) between the affordable and concept maps are grade separation of the remander of the south western Transitway and completion of the Baseline BRT line. I don't think the latter will have any affect on the P&R and I highly doubt if the former will happen (they will likely go directly to exending the LRT instead).

When the LRT is extended south to Fallowfield, the demand for a baseline P&R will be reduced but not eliminated, so I think they will keep it regardless of what the TMP says (they are already deviating from it, so it isn't written in stone).
