Posted by BusMgr on Fri Jul 3 15:15:11 2026, in response to Re: Queens Bus Redesign After 1 Year, posted by Stephen Bauman on Sat Jun 27 14:35:41 2026. The "correct" solution would have been to add one additional stop to route Q53, on Cross Bay Boulevard at Liberty Avenue (and possibly one other stop, on Cross Bay Boulevard at 164th Avenue). Doing so would allow the Q11 to accumulate local passengers between Rego Park and Ozone Park (and possibly Q41 between Ozone Park and Howard Beach), and then transfer at a single Q53 bus stop, without destroying the express nature of route Q53. It may be that a limited-stop variant of route Q11 had been warranted during rush hours, but there was no need to downgrade route Q53 to serve that Q11 purpose. |
