NYCT policy is running time plus 10% minimum recovery time per direction. I have no doubt that it would work during the weekday peak, but would it add a bus during the off peak based on NYCT policy? If so, the planners will not allow the S66 be diverted at all. As long as Grymes Hill service is maintained, and the S57 routing in the North Shore is kept as is.OK, so you wish to change the S54 and merge it with the S42 to become the S77. You have convinced me that the S77 should operate via Castleton Ave, Brighton Ave, Lafayette Ave, Prospect Ave, Franklin Ave, and Richmond Terrace to St. George. But, you will have to convince the service planners. They will believe that those handful of S40 transfers, and eliminating Broadway service north of Castleton Ave and eliminating Brighton Ave service between Lafayette Ave and Jersey St, are far more important than bringing better service to New Brighton. And they, generally, have the final say. |
