Well, they're public now...

Changes

Other service changes not mentioned in the PDF's/videos:

-No more N4 short turns
-N17 restoration
-More N25, N40, N41 service
-More early morning westbound N72 service.
-N4 peak headway now 10 min (originally 7.5)
-N6 peak headway now 10 min, Sat 12 min, additional evening service
-N14 time to meet trains
-N15 midday/Sat headway now 20 min (originally 15)
-N19 peak headway now 30-40min, midday/Sat hourly
-N20 peak headway 5-10 min, Saturday 20min
-N21 rush hours only
-N31/32 midday headway 20 min (originally 15)
-N45 rush hours only
-N48/49 midday hourly, Saturday 40min, no Sat N48 service
-N51 no Saturday service
-N55 to Amityville, midday hourly, Saturday 40min
-N62 rush hours only
-N70/71/72 Midday headway 20min, hourly to Babylon
-N74 midday service discontinued, N73/74 peak headway 40min

My thoughts:

-Lots of non-clockface headway schedules. Better hope that there's plenty of paper schedules available!!!
-Why aren't they touching the most expensive routes in the system? (N80/81)? What becomes of the extremely expensive N73 Saturday service? I smell some corruption.
-These minor headway reductions should be fine.
-Paratransit service can't be reduced, so there'll be extra paratransit service for eliminated route segments. How will that be communicated to customers?
