Why not put the station on top of the middle of Terry Fox bus loop (in the middle) so no overhead walkways are required. Maybe slightly more expensive to elevate the rail over the bus loop, but way more user friendly. You can see in the alignment they had to put in a rather harsh curve (east of the station) to put the rail south of the existing bus loop.

In any case, this EA is more about routing, etc... The station design will change multiple times as it gets closer to construction. Still, its unfortunate they've already gone with a less user-friendly option for the Terry Fox Station.
