> Another benefit of cheap bus stops is under-utilized stops can be removed with less investment lost According to the public transit authority around here, if you remove a bus stop (due to, say, a drop in transit usage) and try to bring it back later (after usage of transit goes back up), it can take up to five years to see ridership recognize that, and start to use the stop at the same rate as when it was removed. It may be cheaper to leave the stop there long-term.
