About the western situation, the easiest answer (and my preferred answer) is to extend to Bayshore at the same time as Baseline. Ridership would be better balanced out as both those from the southwest and west would start on an empty train rather than crowding a half-full or full train; a very high-density area and major trip generator would be served and it would simplify things BIG TIME for Kanata and Stittsville routes - reducing transfers for the vast majority of passengers in the area at all times of day. I estimate at least 80% of trips starting or ending in Kanata and Stittsville leave that area, mostly on Route 96 (some on Route 118), even during off-peak periods, and those destined to (or transferring at) Bayshore have a direct trip there.
