Re: Queens/Steinway Transit acquisition question

Posted by Osmosis Jones on Fri Oct 1 17:45:39 2021, in response to Re: Queens/Steinway Transit acquisition question, posted by Italianstallion on Mon Sep 27 15:52:27 2021.

Half of the Q101 duplicates other bus routes as well as the subway with a stub end terminal at the outer fringes of Midtown, while the other half is either pretty walkable to the subway or goes through a heavily industrial area comprised of warehouses that have plenty of parking on site. The route gets 24/7 service, but is dead overnight unless a northbound bus happens to meet an arriving (E) train from Manhattan at Broadway.

The route is a relic, and bus service along Steinway Street needs to be restructured badly. The MTA had some good ideas in connecting the street with Greenpoint and Williamsburg, but we’ll see if that idea sticks.
