Now you are also assuming that all bus stops are equal. They are not.If you are traveling north south and the bus stop nearest you is for a route going east west, that bus stop is useless to you, increasing the distances you provided. Also, what will be the closest distance to a bus stop after 50 or 70 percent of those stops are removed? Keep in mind that the accepted industry standard and also the MTA's planning guideline which they are flagrantly ignoring is that you should walk no greater than one-quarter to a local bus stop except for sparsely populated areas like parts of outer Staten Island. |
