It's more than 2 to 3 minutes extra. More like at least five. Are you going to tell me that the speed on 88 Street which is a narrow two-way is the same as on the Woodhaven overpass to Union Turnpike without any lights? During rush hours when traffic over that overpass is slow, then it might be only another three minutes. Not at other times when it takes one minute to get over the overpass.It would take two minutes or more just get to Metropolitan and Cooper depending on the traffic on Cooper which would increase. Then from there to Union Turnpike would take another three or four minutes, then another minute to get back to Woodhaven. That's about 7 minutes as compared to one. And do you have any idea how slow traffic on 37th Avenue is on weekends? It takes five minutes just to get in and out of the parking lot. And let's see big trucks trying to make that right turn into 73rd Avenue and go around Trotting Course Lane to Metropolitan and back to Woodhaven. All it takes is one truck to delay every vehicle behind it. Your 73rd Avenue reroute could take ten extra minutes. |
