On that note, I don't think the SW BRT should stop at MRU. A stop at MRU would take an extra 5-10 min longer to reach downtown and detract SW commuters from taking the BRT and instead use the LRT. The planned BRT station at Heritage or Rockyview would be a sufficient transfer point for MRU students.

I would think that MRU would be a higher trip generator than the deep SW. I don't know if the demographics of the area along 14 St south of the reservoir include a lot of transit users, but I do know MRU does, if only because dozens of people, including anyone I know who attends, constantly tell me they need more transit.
