It leaves many residents beyond 1/2 mile from transit service. The only route that can fill that gap would be a local route running along Goethals Road North/Fahy Avenue, and I don't see anything mentioned in the NSAA about that corridor.I honestly don't even think they noticed the gap before I brought it up to them. They were so focused on the areas along the waterfront that they failed to notice the lack of service just a little bit further inland. And it's not like it wasn't in the study area either: The study area included everything north of Victory Blvd. If they wanted to focus on the areas north of Forest Avenue, they should've defined the study area as such (even then, they missed a spot. The whole area up in the hills by Prospect Avenue is left without weekend service because the S42 is also an outdated route). |
