Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

For the Green Infrastructure and Buildings Credit on Transit Facilities, only bus stops that are operational by the time of project completion can be included in the credit documentation. In this scenario, since only one of the proposed bus stops will be in operation at the time of project completion, only this stop can be included in the application form. Stops that will become operational after project completion cannot be counted toward the credit.


LEED v4 Neighborhood Development Guide: This guide discusses the credit criteria for Transit Facilities, specifying that only currently operational or immediately operational stops can be included (USGBC, LEED v4 Neighborhood Development Current Version).

LEED Reference Guide for Neighborhood Development: Offers specific instructions on documenting transit facilities, including the requirement that stops must be operational at project completion (USGBC, LEED Reference Guide for Neighborhood Development).

This reminds me of a practice question where we had to evaluate similar criteria for bus stops. I feel like we might be able to include two stops.

I think we can only count the stops that are in operation at the time of application, so maybe just one?

I remember something about counting operational bus stops, but I'm not sure if we include the ones that aren't operational yet.
