Buses coming from the periphery of Queens fill up pretty quickly. he extended subway would attract riders who fill up buses now. Extend the E subway to Springfield Blvd and you may have at least half the seats filled, if not more, by the time the train arrives at Jamaica Center.I'm missing your point. extending the E would have the principle advantage of reducing the amount of bus operations. It would result in people who had to ride the bus to Jamaica riding to Springfield, with fewer people getting on at Jamaica. This decreases travel time, and might add a nominal amount of new passengers. |
