Hopefully the higher tolls on the Bayonne Bridge will provide enough ridership for Joel to revive the 144, as well as provide a route over the Goethals Bridge.As I've always said, express buses can be cheap to operate if done right. On the weekends, the X1 has a farebox recovery ratio higher than that of a lot of local routes (citywide), and the X10's FRR is higher than those of a lot of SI routes. The main reason is that they both have a fairly even schedule. It's in the MTA's best interest to encourage off-peak express ridership (the same could apply to ridership in general, but especially express routes). |
