Southbound auto traffic isn't as bad as everyone thinks, since the synced lights along Nostrand keep things flowing. I thought it would've been a disaster for me, which is why I give myself an hour to get to work when in reality it only takes 25 minutes to breeze to the depot. I use Nostrand and Rogers regularly on my days off, but either way you see it, the traffic flow of ONE LANE on NY Avenue is absolutely horrendous. Another delay factor - Fulton Street; sometimes it takes 5-10 minutes to get through the block.I'm all for creating a new route for NY Avenue, and pushing the 44 local onto Rogers Avenue (with trucating the 49 to Flatbush), for the simple fact that the entire Rogers corridor is as dense as Nostrand, more than New York Avenue, I should say... and in time will gain more ridership. |
