'As cool as the Ferry is, if the entire borough of SI is that dependent on a single mode of transportation then there is a serious problem'It isn't dependent on a single mode. Many people drive to work, over either the VNB or the Bayonne Bridge. There are many express buses to Manhattan. And there's the newly established MTA bus to NJ, connecting there with the HBLR. Admittedly if something stopped the ferry from running altogether, there would be a major capacity problem on the other modes, but then that is usually true of rush-hour transport service in any congested city if you take out one mode. |
