Posted by BrooklynBus on Fri Jun 24 19:55:57 2016, in response to Re: MTA's Poor Priorities, posted by Wakefield-241st Street on Fri Jun 24 12:23:47 2016. I don't ride the Bx41 SBS because. Am rarely in the Bronx and see no need to make a special trip just to ride it. Did I ever criticize the Bx41? Just a few times like complaining how the fare machines had to be replaced after three years because no one thought of weather protection. That was just a dumb oversight that resulted in wasting millions Of dollars.As far as how it runs and if it is an improvement, I never debated that it wasn't. I even stated early on that I was pro SBS in concept and supported the Bx 41. I was critical of why the M15 was chosen and over the years became more and more critical of SBS as I became more familiar with the process. As far as improving Woodhaven SBS, I have made numerous suggestions. They should go with concept 1 and allow HOV in the bus lane. I also stated the bus lane should begin at 3 PM, not 4 PM and it shoukd not run past rush hours. I like their latest proposal for Cross Bay Blvd but I would have the curbside bus lanes in effect only in the peak direction. I think that is enough suggestions. My current position is that future SBS routes needs to be put on hold until contactless payment because it makes no sense to purchase fare machines that will be scrapped in 2019 even if the Feds pay for it. |
