Concerns about having to walk farther to a bus stop (e.g. for older riders) are the same at night as during the day. In fact, it could be even more of a concern if the walk is in a marginal neighborhood.While there are people who would prefer to walk more for a bus that arrived sooner, there are probably also people who would prefer to wait in one place with less walking even if they had to wait longer. Wasn't this one reason the B37 was restored? As far as the B54, it was made a 24-hour route when the portion of the Myrtle Avenue el west of Broadway was dismantled. Perhaps enough time has passed since then that supplementing the old service doesn't matter as much. But perhaps not. |
