"Very possible that your average speed on the detour would be less than ten mph."If traffic were that bad, Woodhaven times would be long too. "The distance traveled on 88 Street is not short at all. It is 11 intersections. In Manhattan, that could take 30 minutes." Half a mile. In Manhattan, traffic does not average 1 MPH. Besides, what does Manhattan have to do with this? "The travel time up the overpass without any traffic is only about 30 seconds. Add 30 seconds to wait for the light to change and you have one minute." Greater than half a mile in 30 seconds from a stop? You should not still have a license. "I am saying when there is congestion on the overpass and it takes five minutes to get over it, then if the detour on 88 Street takes 8 minutes, that would be a 3 minute difference." What the hell does congestion on the overpass have to do with it? Either way, all of your numbers are completely unsubstantiated. "I have not justified bus lanes at all." Yes, you have! "I have presented a very logical case against them." I doubt you have ever presented a very logical case against anything. "You claimed that the 73rd Avenue detour is feasible." Yes, because it is! "When I pointed out it would take an extraordinary amount of time," It won't, but that isn't the point. "you conclude I justified the bus lanes." YES! IF TRAFFIC IS SO BAD THAT DELAYS ARE AS SIGNIFICANT AS YOU SAY, BUS LANES ARE REQUIRED FOR BUSES TO BE OF ANY USE AT ALL!!! " Totall nonsense. What you stated dies not follow." See above |
