Yes, the SBS will get more crowded over time and use of the local will decline. That's because SBS service is excellent while lcal service is poor. Common sense says if you run artics on the SBS and 40 footers on the locals. You will need two locals to every artic. But the MTA is running more SBSs than locals. So the SBSs are empty while the locals are so overcrowded that you may not even be able to get into the first one. So riders will end up walking a quarter-mile more when they get on and off the bus, although they won't want to, because it still will be quicker than waiting 15 to 20 minutes at times, and then have the bus skip your stop leaving you waiting for the next one. |
