Posted by BrooklynBus on Sat Jul 9 18:55:47 2011, in response to Re: What is wrong with Select Bus Service, posted by checkmatechamp13 on Sat Jul 9 16:24:09 2011. Bay Ridge Avenue is not suitable for bus service east of 13th Avenue. It is a narrow one-way residential street. Of course it could be paired with a parallel street like 49th 50th Street, but a more optimal route like I once proposed was to have it turn up to 65th Street and run along 65th Street and Avenue P. I proposed it to be combined with the B2. You say the B31. Either one would be good. But the MTA insists that 60th Street and 65th Street are just too close for bus routes. They can't see that the routes diverge at both ends. Even if that is their concern, then the bus could make only limited stops along 65th Street like every second or third avenue so it would be fast. Of course that is a departure from present policy which is a no no. |
