Simply put, the planning for a complete Valley Line: SouthEast to West -- Millwoods to WEM (and beyond). Logistics led to the stopping point for a phased development and 102nd Street/102nd Ave. was the most logical point for that interconnection.
 
Roughly 8,016 trips the month of September (estimated 318 per weekday, 210 Saturdays, 136 Sundays and Labour Day). 37 passengers on average. Simple math says 11,766 per weekday, 7,770 per Saturday, 5,032 per Sunday and holiday.

We did lose a full day of service south of Bonnie Doon because of that derailment at the Whitemud.
