Posted by Terrapin Station on Mon Mar 14 21:35:42 2016, in response to Re: Summary and Video of November 2015 SBS meeting in Woodhaven, posted by BrooklynBus on Mon Mar 14 15:51:16 2016. The object is to get people where they want to go. We can eliminate all right and left turns on the entire Woodhaven and Cross Bay Boulevards. What would that do? It would increase capacity as you say. But no one would be able to get anywhere unless you were traveling from Howard Beach to Queens Boulevard. If you were a transportation planner or traffic engineer you would know that CAPACITY ISNT THE ONLY CONSIDERATION.Huh? Why are you changing the subject? You said there would be a 33% reduction in capacity. I replied and showed you why a reduction in lanes does not equate to a 1:1 reduction in capacity. And now you are ignoring what I wrote and are trying to say that there's more to it than capacity. Whether or not there is more to it than capacity is irrelevant to the discussion in this subthread. The discussion is about whether going from 12 to 8 lanes is a 33% reduction in capacity. You claimed it was. I told you why you're wrong. So either admit you were wrong or try bringing proff that you know what you're talking about. Why is this so hard? Why can't you follow along? If you were a transportation planner or traffic engineerIf you were a transportation planner or traffic engineer, or at least someone with even a shred of intelligence, you'd easily be able to tell who here is a transportation planner or a traffic engineer. Getting people to their destinations as quickly as possible is the goal and any proposal that hurts more than it helps as this one does is not a good one.You haven't shown how this plan hurts more than it helps. In fact, others have shown how it helps more than it hurts. So you STFU.No, since you';ve been shown to be completely wrong about almost everything you've said in this thread, you need to STFU and start listening. |
