Re: Another Queens Bus Redesign misstep

For the first almost 2 miles of their routes, from downtown Flushing to Queens College, the Q17 and Q25 share the same route along Kissena Blvd. Their starting points near the subway on Main St are blocks apart.


The different starting points may be the clue:

- Q17 starts at 38th Avenue (about 1,000 feet north of the library).

- Q25 starts at 40th Road (about 300 feet north of the library and visible from there).

Having Q17 stop at the library is consistent with the goal of wider stop spacing. Having Q25 stop at the library is not. Presumably this came up at one or more of the many meetings and in some of the comments. (My own choice would have been to have both routes' first stops on the same block. Ditto for Q26 and Q27.)
