In my scenario, S57 riders would now have two locations to transfer to a bus that goes to the SI Mall: Hylan Blvd between Tysens Ln and Guyon Av, for the S79, and now Rockland Av & Brielle Av, for the S54.And, SIR riders along Mill Rd would no longer have to go through New Dorp Ln, and waste 15 minutes of their commute would increase ridership and revenue in Oakwood Hts area by 30%, something the S57 desperately needs. I'm not sure if such a service would attract many people through considering where it would go. My idea would connect them with the SIR in addition to the New Dorp Shopping Area. I know for a fact that the majority of the people who live at the Todt Hill Houses are a very affluent population; they don't want local bus service. They, however, have been demanding an express bus route for a while in order to conveniently travel to Manhattan and return. The Todt Hill Houses are far from your average NYCHA development, but they are still far from affluent, and you can often see people walking up Manor Road to catch the Victory Boulevard buses to the ferry, I still think that the S61 should serve them as described in the original post. The X10 serves the houses 7 days a week. |
