Maybe... but a station is the least of there worries:
1. The curves in the flyover are more likely to produce noise than a station, and
2. There isn't even a noise wall there currently to protect against noise from the highway, which is absolutely louder than an LRT.
You should never underestimate the capacity of people to campaign against their own interests, but I haven't seen any evidence of whether Jasmine Crescent is for or against a station. They haven't been engaged at all as far as I can tell.
