I forgot about mentioning the S52 extension to Richmond Ave in my previous post. I have been wanting this for years.If the Arrochar community wants the current S52 routing in their area maintained, it would put your proposed S77 in jeopardy. If so, then the S54 should operate, south of the Seaview Hospital, via Brielle Ave, Rockland Ave, Richmond Ave, the SI Mall, Richmond Ave (not a typo), Arthur Kill Rd, and Giffords/Nelson to Richmond Ave-Hylan Blvd. But if they are willing to sacrifice service, and have the S52 operate straight down Sand La, then the S77 should be implemented. In this scenario, the S54, renumbered to either the S41, S43, S45, or S47 in order to maintain the current numbering convention (I prefer the S47, but any one would work), would be cut back to Seaview Hospital. For the S48/98, it could only have one stop in New Jersey so that the MTA doesn't need a license to operate point-to-point in the state, if it's necessary to have it and the MTA doesn't have it already. (I don't know the laws in New Jersey, so don't take it out of context.) For the proposed S40 elimination in the NSAA, don't let the community bow down to the MTA, or NYCT's service planners. Only constant and consistent pressure will make them back down. And I'm sure that the MTA got an earful already. |
