Pretty sure they'll have the bus lay-by in front of the Scotiabank on Williams, West Bound get off at Scotiabank and pop into the station, and East Bound passengers get off in front of Farm Boy. There's no need for the bus stops to be across the street from eachother. Personally I can't wait for the street to reopen to regular traffic. It's such a pain in the ass to drive across town on Rideau and detour around this 200m long section of closed road.
Also, the North side of Wellington 'bike path' is set to be renewed all the way to Lebreton, to FINALLY connect the bike path over the bridge to something actually useful. I'm tired of taking my life in my hands to bike up the Wellington sidewalk, crossing at Bay, then going as fast as I can in the turn lane on Wellington to Lyon and then try to zip around Lyon street mixed with buses.
YOWetal: The market isn't really that difficult to navigate in mixed traffic on a bike, with low speeds and lots of pedestrians. The Cumberland connection is appreciated, as it would allow you to go north and skip the congestion of the market itself.
Its almost like the Hospital link through Alta Vista. It's death by a thousand cuts by adding pieces of bike lanes here and there until they finally connect. The same thing is happening in Alta Vista, to fool the NIMBY's by incremental change.

Hopefully they remove some of the parking near the LRT entrance. There wasn't much of a bus lane in the earlier plans either.
