I'm not sure if the new 90 will serve Stuyvesant maybe cause its right there and it adds new market for ridership but I don't cause of timing. As of right now the 90 is staying in Troy, but as of yesterday Albany started another fight in taking it. It makes sense cause like I've said it will no longer go near Troy, but Troy Drivers don't wanna loose runs especially when there gonna have real good pay.There changing the 737 as well to work with the new 90. The 737 basically duplicates the shuttle after Wolf Rd. The 39 Route 9 routing is the same until Osborne Rd, Loudenville Rd South will be eliminated. I looked it up today as well, but the new 29 will no longer travel on Bought Rd and Route 9 north of Lathem Farms, its gonna use the St Agnes Highway when reaching Baker Ave to Johnson Rd. Now that I think of it the new 29 could give way to eliminating the weekday only route 116 it makes almost 100% sense. The new 370 will be the same Liberty Park to RPI, your right it does cut RPI/Troy but now we just have to transfer all over again like years ago. Also by doing this its still the same traveling time so I don't know if its a win-win. I always felt it should have been the opposite have 370 stop at Lathem Farms like the 355 stops at Colonie and make the 90(keep it a trunk route one digit) and run local like it does now on Route 2. If RPI students didn't go to SUNY for classes and SUNY students didn't need access to Colonie Center, I strongly think the 90 should skip UAlbany, you got 12,114,and 712 all running in there and ALL going to the SAME spot. There was no word on the 22/35x changes, that were once on the drawing board, until I here more these routes have been postponed as well. |
