Most stations abut at crosswalks that already exist today at least in the 2011 plan. (These crosswalks should presumably should be enhanced more clearly than they are now, e.g. zebra)

Presumably this will remain similar, just a slight different alignment.

(2011 City/Metrolinx plan embedded in background of this slide of one of the Hamilton LRT citizen advocacy's presentations).

Also, the fact you only need to cross ONE lane of now-tamed car traffic, will help. I'm actually more concerned about car traffic speeding adjacent to 1.5 meter sidewalks, than about people crossing to the stations (A concerned actually shared by pro/anti LRTers). I would like to see the city's car-taming plan.
