I think 10 km spacing is completely appropriate. The proposed route parallels existing rapid transit options (Western Transitway/proposed LRT, Baseline LRT, whatever they decide to do with Carling, Trillium Line and SE Transitway). There is no need to build another milk run service to duplicate existing options.
