There aren't any bus stops between Waldegrave Street and Hamilton Avenue. You can view a map of all the stops in the city at the link below.

I've always thought it would be nice to have more direct bus route between downtown and the Avalon Mall. Zig-zagging up Queen's Road, through Rabbittown, and to MUN on Route 10 makes a trip by bus a lot longer than it needs to be. Following the loop made by Route 6 through downtown, then travelling up Springdale Street and on to the mall via Lemarchant Road and Campbell Avenue would work well for this neighbourhood.
