It's possible, and that's a lot of people using the line. Infrastructure to get people moving around in a quick, efficient way, that's why this project has to go through.
Consider that 99 B-Line ridership was half as much before the U-Pass was introduced AND the UBC extension is still quite a few years away.

200,000 imo is quite realistic.
