Posted by BrooklynBus on Mon Feb 22 22:07:13 2016, in response to Re: Summary and Video of November 2015 SBS meeting in Woodhaven, posted by R30A on Mon Feb 22 14:50:16 2016. Let's say I is only 30,000 north and southbound at Elliot, though it is probably closer to 40,000 each way because it is so close to Queens Boulevard. (DOT did not provide numbers for the north part of the roadway. I am not going to check now, but the numbers crossing 157th Avenue are also about 60,000. So are you saying those are all the same cars? Impossible. If 20 percent are the same, it would be a lot. If only half the cars are the same *nearly impossible), you already have 90,000 cars. Since there are more than 1 person per car, you already have over 100,000 giving you all the benefits of the doubt. That is still over three times the number of bus passengers. Realistically it is probably five times the number of bus passengers.Now you say making three right turns is not a big deal. First you insisted banning left turns reduces congestion when it requires additional mileage, not to mention where an additional mile is required such as having to go to Furmanville because you can't turn left on Metropolitan. No it is not okay if cars are diverted to adjacent streets. Just go ask the residents who live there. Look at their "Frequently Asked Questions where they list where they are proposing to add new left turns? Do you see Trotting Course listed? I don't. They removed it just as they removed the proposed left new left turn at Cooper or else they were just plain sloppy by forgetting to include those turns which isn't acceptable either. THE FAQ IS THE ADDENDUM TO THEIR PLAN." |
