Posted by R30A on Sun Jun 15 21:32:28 2008, in response to Re: Keeping old South Ferry station open for the Lexington line after the 1 moves to its new station, posted by RonInBayside on Sun Jun 15 20:36:36 2008. Cortlandt Rector and South ferry stations had a combined turnstile count of roughly 9.5 million riders for the year of 1999. During that same year, the 1 line from 103 to 157 had a turnstile count of roughly 21.6 million people. The line south of Chambers cannot have any riders originating from elsewhere in both directions(IE Those who will not be counted at all.) The turnstile count from 103 to 157 does NOT count the numerous riders at or north of 168(North of 168 is not insignificant- roughly 14.3 million in 1999, with an adjustment made for a deficiency of riders at 181 during that year), a great deal of which will stay on the 1 south of 168.These numbers do not take into account the changes which have occurred since 1999-- The Upper West side has grown considerably, while many jobs have moved from downtown to surrounding areas. |
