Posted by Michael549 on Sat Jan 26 01:13:00 2008, in response to Elected Officials Call for Extension of Q Line to Supplement Roosevelt Island, posted by Roosevelt Island 360 on Fri Jan 25 01:06:04 2008. A very simple suggestion - for the 9-month period that the Tram is out of service, simply increase bus service from Roosevelt Island to nearby Queens subway stations.There's no need to re-route subway lines, subway cars or trains. By taking the bus to nearby Queens subway stations, the riders are then given a variety of routes to reach Manhattan. It may not be direct, but many Roosevelt Island services do come out of Queens. Attempting to re-route the subway trains is just an exercise in pain. There are times when the politicians offer what simply can not be done. Increasing the bus service can easily be done. As far as I am concerned there's no more need, if there was any at all to even attempt to discuss changes in subway service. The discussion is over with - just increase the bus service. Mike |
