Posted by #5 - Dyre Ave on Thu Jan 7 21:20:52 2010, in response to Re: ZMan, that is great news, replacing the M train with the V train., posted by 33rd Street on Wed Jan 6 23:31:36 2010. "The only two factors that would ease the L line's overcrowding would to have the M terminate at Chambers Street on weekends, and additional service on the J line."How do either of these ease the L line's overcrowding? In fact, there isn't much of a demand for Nassau Street service as it is. The J currently terminates at Chambers on weekends and the Fulton and Broad Street stations are closed. "One idea that would make the V line even more useful is to extend it to Avenue C & East Houston Street. I bet you that ridership would drop on the M14 and in turn would help out the L line greatly in Manhattan." Agreed. That is a very good idea. But it will take hundreds of millions of dollars to build such an extension. And it's not even on the MTA's radar right now. |
