The X17J should be split into two routes--one would operate to/from Huguenot via Arden Heights and the West Shore Expressway, the other would operate to/from Annadale via Richmond Ave.Long overdue and it seems NYCT is moving in this direction by starting X17Js at ETC. The next logical step is to reverse the southern portion and operate it every 15-20 minutes. The planners take baby steps with these things. Old Academy had the best route structure in the area and NYCT should restructure the entire area and hand off one or two routes to Academy so that the network is integrated. Right now, the X21 is quietly carrying the X23/X24 overflow. The services should be planned together to reduce travel time and costs. I want the X17T out of the Arden Heights loop. This isn't a serious service until they do that. They can redeploy the savings into three evening trips spaced one hour apart. |
