Of course we should do no more harm than good.The B38 is about a quarter mile from the B54. So even without the B54, there would still be an east west bus within about a half mile walk. The trade off is instead of walking a quarter mile for a route running every 60 minutes, you would walk a half mile for a route running every 30 minutes for the same costs. Actually, that is the same theory proposed by the MTA to have fewer routes with more frequent service. I am opposed to that idea during the day because I believe coverage is just as important as frequency. But at night, it is a different story because 60 minute service is virtually useless. I think most would agree with me and accept less coverage at night for more frequent service. If they prefer the routes we have with 60 minute service, then I would be wrong. |
