I think what needs to happen is that all these small towns on the border of St. John's start their own small services that will bring people to major drop off points in the city. Run one every hour (or to suit the demand) to let's say, the village mall (major hub for metrobus), downtown, stavanger drive, avalon mall, etc. on a non-stop express route and see how well that works out for a while. As the article states, these towns are growing at rapid rates, have increasing revenues and I think they should be investing some of this into doing something creative about transit. Metrobus doesn't have to be the one and only.
