Posted by Gotham Bus Co. on Thu Jul 8 18:05:07 2010, in response to Assemblyman Dinowitz (Bronx) asks for paper transfers {cutback on Bx20}, posted by Gold_12th on Thu Jul 8 02:50:10 2010. [In order for riders to get to the A train during those hours, they would have to either switch to the Bx7 to Manhattan and pay a second fare when they got to the subway, or take the No. 1 train on West 231st Street and to 168th Street and transfer there to the A, at no additional charge.]Why is it so essential to get to the A? If they're going to the Upper West Side, they can stay on the 1 to an appropriate station or switch back at 59th Street. Or they can stay on the Bx10 and switch to the D at East 205th. The key is that all "Riverdalians" still have access to some part of the subway system, even if it isn't their favorite train. [The passageways commuters would have to use at 168th Street stink of urine, Mr. Dinowitz said last week, and Riverdale bus maven Marc Sawyer agreed, and added that the elevator in the station is often broken. Mr. Sawyer also said that he believes the corridors, which are poorly lit, are dangerous.] Those "Riverdalians" would still object even if the elevators ran like clockwork and the passageways were brightly lit and lemony fresh. |
