Posted by gbs on Sun Jul 24 22:44:48 2016, in response to Re: Q59 Route Change September, 2016, posted by B49 Limited on Sun Jul 24 20:09:11 2016. Reconstruction???? A section of Queens Blvd (including the intersection with 63 Rd) was repaved. There is no other reconstruction happening there.The U-turn that the Q59 makes is done from the left-turn bay during the left-turn green light when all pedestrian signals show "Don't Walk". The only conflict could occur if the bus starts its turn at the tail-end of the green-light cycle and by the time it finishes, the pedestrian signal has changed to "Walk". That new terminal on 62 Rd will be a long block (uphill) from the main shopping area and subway entrance. An alternative would be to have the Q59 turn left onto 63 Rd and terminate at the existing Q38 stop just past the gas station. Then, starting the route, turn left onto 97 St, left onto 62 Rd, with a new stop at Junction Blvd for the mall shoppers, then right onto Queens Blvd and regular thereafter. |
