Another fine bus stop

Rear door of the rear bus empties out into a landscaped area, with little miniature signs admonishing people who walk on the landscaping.  A MAX stop would NEVER be designed like this, but it's OK for a bus stop?

I'm sure Jason McFarlane and Neil McHuff have a PERFECTLY logical justification why this bus stop was designed and built two years ago like this...I'm sure it was more efficient and safer and all that....I'm sure.
