Posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Fri Mar 7 09:16:33 2008, in response to Re: Air Train question, posted by Terrapin Station on Fri Mar 7 08:51:38 2008. In short, however -- if 120K people per month were using public transit to the airport via Howard Beach before AirTrain, and shortly after AirTrain service began there were 160K using public transit (80K at Jamaica and 80K at HB), I think it's a safe assumption that there were people who switched from HB to Jamaica as their point of entry. Since that time, HB ridership has gone back up to 120K+ per month (these are also late 2006 stats -- so it could be different now, the trend is pretty clearly upward), so you have about 50% growth in a 3-4 year period at Howard Beach. |
