Even Transport of Rockland runs most of its buses until at least 11PM.Ok, as a Ex-Transport of Rockland driver, I can tell you that some of that late service is unnecessary. Hell I had a saturday run, where I BARELY carried 10 people the whole day and that is 4 round trips! Part of running a public transportation involves actually serving passengers when they need it, and in many cases Bee-Line fails to do so.. Sorry, I live in a Bee Line service area. I have ZERO complaints about my service. Bee Line does a good job, I'm on a line that gets a 20 minute headway 95% of the day and that line DOESN'T EVEN come into the Bronx. Its a suburban operation, not a city operation. The ONLY lines that could benefit from 24 hour service is the 2, 4, 20 and 42. And even that is a stretch... I've been on the last 2, the last 20 AND the last 42. Ridership on those trips are not worthy of 24 hour service. The rest of the system works great. And thanks to the MTA and its MetroCard, the system is actually suffering because of that, but they make due. |
