London is still quite built up but probably more importantly London doesn't have any big gaps within the city itself which plague US cities. Outside of parks or government owned lands, London is quite solid in it's development.
As far as LRT/BRT, London does, contrary to popular belief, have a strong downtown with quite a large office worker population. Far more than most cities London size save government towns. London's employment nodes are quite defined and not as spread out as many. This makes for far easier transit planning. Outside some industry in the east end and suburban retail, most employment in London is centred around downtown, UWO, Fanshawe, and London HSS at Well & Comm.
