    As others have said, it’s near a university.

    However, this isn’t how you should build public transit, along a corridor. It a) restricts the other mode of transport for evermore b) it encourages growth near the station (which isn’t what you would want) c) discourages walking cities d) it’s loud af e) it’s not in the centre of an area but the outskirts which means it’s less usable for the majority of the area and more for only the people hemmed around the highway.

    It’s like nobody looks at city maps from around the world and how passenger suburban and city rail is a new/difficult concept.
