"Nothing in the FAQ document shows results from traffic or transportation models. It only has a few limited vehicular counts and pedestrian counts."
Who said they displayed their raw data?

"If you want to see a document with modeling data, go to the Queens College Study."
Let me directly quote from that study:
" It does not, though, predict how trip patterns would change if a new transportation segment were to be built, nor can it provide a ridership estimate for that facility."

"Do you even know what a transportation model is? Obviously not. Traffic counts are not synonymous with models in spite of what you may think."
Of course they aren't. Traffic counts are necessary data to base such modelling on however.

"How is explaining how the MTA transportation planning models ten years ago were only useful in macro planning such as the need for a Second Avenue subway or a bridge over Long Island Sound but not useful for local bus planning a cnspiracy theory? Those statements were made by the MTA in 2006 in Brooklyn Borough Hall at a NYMTC meeting."
That is taking a quote out of the applicable context. This is not simply moving bus stops.

"Certainly Trotting Course Lane will not be a designated truck route. That leaves only Furmanville."
Maybe. Who says Furmanville will be one? No way to know yet.

""No traffic at all"
Bullshit. When did you go? Midnight? Try a Saturday or Sunday afternoon."
Sunday at 2 PM is not Sunday afternoon?
