Posted by Hank Eisenstein on Tue Mar 8 12:42:37 2011, in response to S83 Limited & S53 to Arlington (and the S57A/B, S59A/B, S99, X21), posted by (SIR) North Shore Line on Mon Mar 7 20:54:22 2011. That x21 routing is useless. No one lives along the stopping part of the route, and for a park & ride that location is not only terrible access wise, but far from populated areas.The other routings here make no sense. Extending cross-island buses to the Ferry will only make those cross-island routes less reliable. The location for that proposed 'North Shore Transit Center' is also horrible. First, it's in a relatively high-crime area; second, it, too, is much too far from the population that would use it, and the buses routed to it in this proposal would actually INCREASE commute times, since it's so far in the wrong direction of travel. The best thing to do is extend the 79, or the 55/56, to West Shore Plaza, via Travis Ave and South Ave. A limited-stop, or a short-turn (at Victory Blvd) 53 is a good idea. |
