Correct at both ends of Manhattan, but my comment still stands that the majority of Manh. stations are shallow cut and cover which remains the most convenient for riders. As to the other utilities, yes they are an issue, but as with ANY major public works project designers will figure out how to lace/thread the various parts around each other. We all know about 34th & 6th on the IND having to slip in between/around H&M and BMT, but it was done, and is still closer to the sidewalk and former basement entrances to retailers than the SAS currently being built. Slow, balky, and often OOS escalators are NOT rapid transit. |
