"First of all it is debatable that bus service will be greatly improved. It's more like minimally improved. Connections will not be reduced or the number of fares required for three bus trips. The B15 will not transfer to Q53 and neither will the B82 SBS because there is no proposal for a route extension to Cross Bay Blvd."
I think you misunderstand the goals of this project.

"If what you say will happen, why is neither the MTA or DOT venturing a guess on how many will switch modes. It's because they don't want to be wrong. What is ridership actually decreases like it did on many other SBS routes? What will you say then?"

I suspect that unlike you and like me, the MTA certainly does hesitate to make concrete assertions about what future ridership. Yes, they value not being wrong! Unlike yourself. You seem to revel in it!

But ridership is up on all but one of the improved markets! And the one where ridership is down is clearly following the trend of ridership in its area.
