Most people still have to plough through traffic to drive there, nevermind find a parking spot. If you don't work 9-5, you're out of luck. If you don't have a car, you're out of luck. Also what about all the people from elsewhere in the GTA going to work in Mississauga? This isn't Oakville we're talking about here.
Well, we are talking about the 9-5 commutte, as thats when the peak demand that has to be filled. If you live in Missy without a car, then generally, you are out of luck on many things as most things are not within walking distance, and luging your groceries onto buses is very unpleasant. A lot of people do work in Missy who do not live there, but, there is no feasible solution to bring rapid transit, other than buses, other than the usual couple of corridors like hwy 10 that could sustain it. Secondly, employment in mississauga is sprawled all over the place, with no high concentration like in central Toronto. When you talk about rapid transit serving within 905, you don;t have enough people going the same direction to warrant it. If you want to live the lifestyle of downtown, then move and work downtown.
