Posted by New Flyer #857 on Tue Oct 10 07:53:42 2023, in response to Re: Extending the SAS across 125th on the table, posted by Stephen Bauman on Mon Oct 9 22:38:57 2023. The obvious solution would be to have this different mode reach the remaining 25% of the population and reduce reliance on the mode that has higher per unit operating costs.Counter-argument: if you have a cross-125th subway line, you can reduce reliance on buses there too, even if more population isn't "reached." Flushing I know is it's own problem because there's basically only one subway station that all the buses want to go to, but in Jamaica I don't know why they do it the way they do. If every route just ended at the closest subway station to its route, traffic wouldn't be as bad. As it is, it's common for buses coming in along Hillside Ave from the east to just turn back (pre-scheduled) at 179th St Station because that's all most passengers want to reach. From the other directions, it doesn't seem to me that routes like the Q54 and Q56 need to go all the way through to 170th, and the Q110-to-114 as far north as Hillside. |
