I'm assuming this is still conceptual. It doesn't look like a final design. There don't seem to be proper platforms for either HSR or GO Transit.
HSR would want sawtooth like Eastgate, Mohawk, and future Lime Ridge, especially since they would be running some articulated buses through here.
GO would want gaps between their platforms for queueing and wheelchair loading (on buses where they don't load W/Cs at the front door), like their stations at Hamilton GO or Union.
I'm disappointed that there isn't a transit-only entrance right at the corner of Main and Cootes. Each bus still has to travel an extra few-hundred metres to get going in the right direction. Why not move that AR1 block further north and let buses enter directly from the intersection? That way transit wouldn't have to enter the campus at all.
