That doesn't sound too shabby. Besides, the S53 and S79 would be stealing revenue from the Brooklyn buses if they were to be all local in Brooklyn along that stretch of Fourth Avenue.The only thing is, no more connection at 86th Street/Fourth Avenue to the (R) train. Then again, riders would just stay on the S53/S79 to 59th Street/Fourth Avenue where they can take either the (N) or (R) train, opening options for either a local or express train Ridership at 86th street would suffer as a result. So your idea is to have the S53 and S79 take this pattern: Dahlgreen Place (stops at 92nd, 90th/88th, 86th) back on the highway...and what exit would it take to get to 59th Street? I'd use the 65th Street exit and then go underneath the Gowanus until Fourth Avenue where it can make the drop offs and pickups at 59/Fourth like I stated in my other post. |
