Plus, inbound, passengers on the western end of Lamberts Lane have a really long walk to a bus stop (either Richmond Avenue/Christopher Lane or Goethals Road North/South Avenue)2) There might be people transferring from other routes that could take the S93, as well as people who live a few blocks from either South Avenue or Richmond Avenue. For example, in the morning, I walk to Richmond Avenue and take the S44, S59, or S89 to get to Port Richmond. Going home, I either take the S44 or S46 (I live in the middle of the two routes, so the difference is 10 minutes at most, discounting the waiting time) Going home, I would be able to take a shorter walk to the S93, take it 1 or 2 stops to Richmond Avenue (depending on where the stops would be placed) and then transfer to the S44, S59 or S89. Going home, I would be able to take the S46 to Goethals Road North, and then take the S93 and have a shorter walk home than from Richmond Avenue. Plus, like I said, the S93 would allow areas near South Avenue to be connected to the areas near Richmond Avenue, as well as points further east (most notably, CSI and Brooklyn). Right now, the only option to get to Brooklyn is to take an east-west bus to the slow S53 (even with limited-stop service on the S53 and/or direct service into Mariners' Harbor through an S46 split, the S93 would still be the faster route) |
