Posted by The Port of Authority on Tue Oct 24 22:38:52 2006, in response to Re: My idea for the BxM4, posted by QM18Express on Tue Oct 24 22:29:45 2006. I have to say that that the QM1/QM1A getting that kind of cut would mean the ridership on the Q46 would become out of hand. The QM1/QM1A is pretty busy route as it is so leave it aloneThen just expand service on the Q46! That's not that difficult... maybe create some short-turns and semi-expresses that run non-stop from a certain service area to a subway station. Or, create new routes that connect the QM1/A service areas to key stations on the Queens Blvd subway. I only agree on the X29. The X28/X38 and X51 are not really subway duplicates. Good luck getting rid of the X27/X37 and X28/X38(Remember when the weekend service was going to get the boot and people got their congress people on this?) The X51 is a subway/local bus/LIRR duplicate. The X28 and X38 basically parallel the B64 (not to mention that they run 3 blocks away from the West End Line for a good distance) so they're not really needed. The X27 and X37 are better served with feeder buses for the subway, given that they're so convenient to it. Why don't you go down to Water and Fulton around 8-9 in the morning and alot of the seats are full. Maybe wait til the 2nd Ave Subway starts up to Lower Manhattan for the X90 to be gone. Just because the seats are full doesn't mean that the route is carrying a large number of people. See my post here. The X90 is the king of all subway duplicates. It doesn't even go outside of Manhattan! |
