Posted by Rail Blue on Mon Sep 4 08:21:25 2006, in response to Re: Intermediate Station Fare Payment on SIRT (was:Re: Scrap pecking order with R44-SI), posted by Lou from Brooklyn on Mon Sep 4 06:49:23 2006. No transfers between these bus routes:downtown Fifth Av and uptown Madison Av buses (M1, M2, M3, M4) downtown Lexington Av and uptown Third Av buses (M101, M102, M103) southbound and northbound Grand Concourse buses (Bx1 and Bx2) M27 and M50 M31 and M57 M96 and M106 Bx40 and Bx42 In most cases, there'd be no sensible reason to transfer between those routes (you could create a plausible if slightly silly reason for M31/M57), but it does create some anomalies on the 3rd/Lex routes: 1) If you use the M101 as a 125th St Crosstown bus, you will have to wait for the M7 only on Lenox Av. 2) If you use the M102 on Lenox Av, you may only use the M60, M100, and Bx15 as 125th St Crosstown buses. 3) It seems someone forgot the M98. Ultimately, the "problem" is that the M101 is an extremely long, multi-purpose route. In a way, I'm slightly surprised it hasn't been cut back to its northern half and the M102 and M103's frequencies improved to compensate. |
