The expresses are burning cash in Queens.Buses are burning cash all over. According to the 2017 NTD tables, the subsidy for express buses is $11.79 per unlinked passenger trip for all NYCT express buses. The local and SBS buses are also heavily subsidized: $2.40 for local buses and $2.07 for SBS. There isn't a similar break down for MTA Bus. The subsidy is $4.87 per unlinked passenger trip. By contrast, the subsidy for subways is: $0.48 per unlinked passenger trip. |
