I suppose if you believed in distance based tolls, you could charge $2 for the Howard Beach Leg and $5 for the Jamaica leg.You could do that. It wouldn't address Terp's concerns, though. The distance based fare probably wouldn't be that much of a difference, as the difference in the lengths of the two branches is not nearly as much as many think -- 1.5 miles from HB to Federal Circle as compared to 2.9 miles between Jamaica and Federal Circle. One would probably want to base distance fares on the trip to the terminals, however. The trip from Jamaica to Terminal 1 is 4.75 miles, as compared to 3.35 from Howard Beach. From Jamaica to Terminal 8 is 6.05 miles, as compared to 4.65 from HB. |
