Posted by BrooklynBus on Sun Aug 30 21:08:47 2015, in response to B6/B82 SBS In The Works, posted by Kriston Lewis on Thu Aug 27 20:30:27 2015. I heard you. This is how you should never do a study. You tell people that you want to hear their ideas about improving bus travel in southern Brooklyn, when you couldn't care less about their ideas. You have already decided you will have an SBS route and limited your choices to the B6 and B82. If anyone suggests anything else you simply tell them it is outside the study area.So what you do, is you take all the problems people tell you about and use it as justification to institute SBS. Late buses - SBS will cure that; overcrowded buses - SBS will cure it. Whatever the problem they mention you claim it will go away with SBS. Meanwhile 70 year old routing problems remain unresolved because those routes are not part of the study. The way you do a study of south Brooklyn problems is to solicit problems without restriction. If you find most of the complaints or many are specific to the B6 and B82, then you can look to see if SBS or some other solution is warranted. Perhaps a new airport bus is needed. Perhaps it should use the Belt Parkway. But you have already determined if you are going to serve JFK it will have to be along the B6 or B82 routes. Don't pretend to be objective when in fact you have 90 percent of the plan worked out before you begin your study. That is dishonest. But I would expect no less from the MTA and DOT. |
