tends to reduce construction costs <strong>and</strong> minimize<br />

the necessary right-of-way. In order to receive<br />

points, stations must have a center plat<strong>for</strong>m that<br />

serves both directions of service. Stations with side<br />

plat<strong>for</strong>ms <strong>and</strong> other stations that do not serve both<br />

directions of service are not eligible.<br />
