Actually, there are very few older urban residential areas that will be directly served by the currently-building project, and even fewer in the extensions that are one the table for any time this century.
The suburbs will get real mass transit before the vast majority of central neighbourhoods will. Central residents will have to make do with buses until well into the 2100s.
