No. Your logic has flaws.1. You don't decide to place a bus route on a street because of a single department store. If you think that had anything to do with why the B49 was placed on Bedford Avenue, you know very little about bus route history. It is there for one reason and one reason only. When Rogers and Nostrand Avenues were converted to one ways in the 1960s,, the B49 and the B44 had to be rerouted. They were moved to Bedford and NY Avenues on the same day. 2. The B16 only serves a half mile segment of Ocean Avenue and serves no more than 5% of Ocean Avenue passengers. For you to use that as an example why rerouting the B49 to Ocean Avenue is a ridiculous reason; typical of a response the MTA would give. |
