The Q46 is one of the busiest routes in Queens. The entire Union Turnpike corridor needs a subway line; the ridership demands something other than buses.

I believe that a few express runs to SI should be kept -- the midtown ones only with major reductions in service. The downtown runs should be axed, as riders can take the SIR to the ferry, a local bus to the ferry, a local bus to the SIR to the ferry, or drive to the ferry.

The X27, X28, X29, X37, X38, and X51 need to be removed. They're subway duplicates.

The X32 should stay because it isn't a traditional express bus in the same sense as the rest of the routes.

And who even rides the X90? Eliminate that in a heartbeat.

All Rockaway and LGA routes should be axed. College Point routes... now that's different (QM2 and QM3 can be eliminated, there's no need for the QM4 as passengers can take the Q65A to Forest Hills, and the QM1/A service should be drastically cut.)

Eliminate the BM3, BM4 and BQM1. The BQM1 can be replaced with a feeder route from Spring Creek Towers to the Canarsie subway station.
