"What are you trying to twist now? I never stated that SBS routes operate at 30 minute headways. I was referring to new local routes being instituted and I made myself quite clear. You can't argue points intelligently so you resort to changing the history of the conversation.

I am through wasting my time responding to your nonsense. "

Lets look back on the history then!

Brooklyn Bus: 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?"

R30A: 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.

Brooklyn Bus: Where do you get bus ridership is up in all but one of the improved markets? If you are going by the fact that the new routes with 30 minute headways had no ridership before they began operations and now they have six riders per bus, then you are correct.

R30A: What route has 30 minute headways? What route does not directly replace another?

Brooklyn Bus: All the new routes with the exception of the Q70 operate on 30 minute headways. The new west side Manhattan route, the B32 and the B84. The restored B37 operates at 20 minute headways because it was not a new route. All these routes did not replace other routes. The B67 extension also operates at 30 minute headways.

R30A: So, of those, 0 are applicable routes running on 30 minute headways!

Brooklyn Bus: About bus routes, you asked which new routes operate at 30 minute headways and when I told you, you responded that zero are applicable. They are all applicable. Why do you ask a question when you don't want to hear the answer?

R30A: Lets see: New SBS routes: BX12SBS, M15SBS, M34SBS M34ASBS, BX41SBS, B44SBS, Q44SBS, M60SBS...
Which are on 30 minute headways?
(So yes, none are applicable.)


See? YOU brought UP SBS, then changed the topic to other buses. Any normal person would assume that if someone is talking about SBS, that the following statements they make are about SBS unless you make a statement to the contrary.
