So then you shouldn't be mentioning the surrounding the communities, if your concern is serving the college itself.In any case, I stand by my point that it would not be worth the time penalty for S57 riders on the northern portion of the route. Not to mention the potential for delays for riders on all sides of the route. A southbound bus gets stuck in the 8AM traffic heading into the gate, and boom, anybody headed to New Dorp is screwed. An issue that has irked me and many riders for a long time is the lack of an eastbound stop at Victory & Bradley. Riders coming from the S62/92/93, looking to transfer to the S57 have to go all the way to Jewett and walk back. That should not be the case. As for the X12/42, rush hour service is fine as is. There's not enough riders west of Richmond to sustain the route on their own. If you need super-express service from Mariners Harbor or Graniteville, take the X17 or X30. For middays, I wouldn't run the X12, but I would consider it reasonable to send alternate X10s to Mariners Harbor. Not saying it should necessarily happen, but I wouldn't be against it. |
