Re: Queens Bus Redesign Draft Proposals

And how about this silly proposal of having the QT74 route operating northward on Elmhurst Avenue between Broadway and Roosevelt Avenue...there are three speed humps along that multi-block stretch!

The planners at MTA should have realized that these speed humps are there, and the NYCDOT criteria is not to install them on streets that are used by regularly scheduled bus lines or truck routes.

One has to wonder if they are creating new routes to be operated along streets, narrow or not, and where any sort of speed reducers are installed, which could slow the buses considerably, plus possibly doing wear and tear damage on either the bus or the humps themselves.
