It would have helped me cut my commute in half for a few years. Instead, I had to take the M train all the way to Essex and get the F just to go back to Jay St. It was absurd to have to travel all the way to Manhattan just to go back to Brooklyn again, when a '10 or 15" minute ride on the el would have went direct.I tried many different ways, but I always end up back with the M to the F version, which turned out to be the fastest. I tried the B54 bus, but that was the bus from hell (just like most buses in my opinion), so that lasted two days. I tried the M to the J to Bway Junction for the A to Jay Street, but I got tired of the transfer at Bway Junction, and it was longer than taking the M to the F at Essex. I also tried the M through lower manhattan straight to Court St or Lawrence St, but that was also the trip from hell. The trek all the way down the Nassau line and then through the Montague took forever. It was easier just to get off the M for the F at Essex, and that's what I did for the remainder. |
