""There is no reason to show such"
I disagree. It is called proving your case which is what government is required to do."
A. No they are not required to do so.
B. The results on the other lines clearly have proven the success of the concept, so they did anyway.

"I didn't say you should put park and ride lots on Woodhaven."
Then what the hell did you mean?

"And you are correct. They are not building on any assumption of car use reduction which is exactly why this proposal cannot work."
When you do not reduce capacity, you do not need to assume lower usage.

""You know, there is nothing preventing a SBS rider from transferring to a non- SBS route."
What does that have to do with anything? If the B82 SBS does not connect with the Woodhaven SBS, a third bus and an extra fare is required so many will not do it."

They can take a different bus. Or use an unlimited metrocard, like many regular commuters do. Or take the subway. Or drive. ETC.

"No one has provided any specifics to show that SBS will benefit more than will suffer from it. "
As nobody has come up with a group that will NOT benefit from SBS, such is moot.

"All we have a generalities like buses carry more passengers than cars."
That is not a generality, it is a nearly universal truth.
