But the thing is that it could be done relatively cheaply: The S40 terminates right at the foot of the Goethals Bridge, so they have to do is extend some trips for the 15 minute ride across the Goethals Bridge to the Elizabeth NJT station.I'd rather see the S40 go down to West Shore Plaza and give Teleport workers a faster ride to the ferry. If an existing local route had to go to Elizabeth, I'd send the S48, but Elizabeth would be better served by a new express route from Port Richmond. Even an S56 extension to Perth Amboy could be done fairly cheaply: The S56 could be routed away from Tottenville High School (school trippers could remain to serve the school) towards the Bricktowne Mall. It could travel along Amboy Road, Bloomingdale Road, Englewood Avenue, and Veterans Road West, serve Bricktowne, and then go across the Outerbridge. The S55 and S56 are lost causes, it would be better to create a new route to Perth Amboy from Pleasant Plains. |
