Posted by R30A on Wed Feb 24 23:24:44 2016, in response to Re: Summary and Video of November 2015 SBS meeting in Woodhaven, posted by BrooklynBus on Wed Feb 24 22:38:28 2016. I like to stick to the ACTUAL numbers we have to work with.To be specific with regards to the counts, it is AM peak, Northbound at Myrtle. Buses: 1915 riders Cars: 3342 riders So the actual ratio is roughly 1.75 car passengers to 1 Bus rider. Those 3342 riders are split among 2516 vehicles. That is 1.33 riders per vehicle. That answers your first part. With regards to the second. Yes you are being inconsistent. You assume 75 minute travel times to go 2.3 miles? THAT DOES NOT WORK. And since there AREN'T five times the amount of drivers and passengers on the road as bus riders, it would not be nearly as big of a cumulative loss as you claim. But the REAL reason why it isn't going to be a cumulative loss is the kicker. THE WOODHAVEN REENGINEERING IS DESIGNED TO REDUCE TRAFFIC FOR CARS TOO. So your entire argument is based on a false premise. |
