Posted by checkmatechamp13 on Mon Jul 11 21:27:53 2011, in response to Re: What is wrong with Select Bus Service, posted by Osmosis Jones on Sun Jul 10 23:41:14 2011. Not all day. During rush hours, it runs every 15 minutes. Ridership varies based on the timing of the buses (whether the S44 or S59 comes first), but on average, there are a few standees on each northbound bus, and on the southbound buses, you'll see one bus with around 6-8 standees, one bus with a seated load, and one almost empty (generally, the S94 is the one with the seated load, and the S59/S89 vary as far as which will have the standees).In the later evening (past, say 6:00PM leaving from Bayonne), I think 13 minutes is too frequent for the S89. The headways should be closer to every 20 minutes, and it should serve 8th Street rather than 34th Street. I also had a plan for an S82 route that would take some of the s89's buses and travel along Richmond Avenue, the SIE service road, South Avenue, and the West Shore Expressway, making limited stops in those areas. |
