The real issue is what is the maximum walking distance to the bus? Routes with nearby parallel routes can have farther stops than routes with no nearby parallel routes.I know it’s not buses, but if you look at where the stops were for the Second Avenue L, Third Avenue L, and Lex subway, you will notice with the exception of a few major streets, they tried not to have their stops at the same cross streets. That was because they wanted the maximum walking distance to the train to be minimized. They rightly so weren’t only concerned with how far the stops were from each other. |
