Q51 question, is there any signs for a demand for south Brooklyn - Rockaway service?I have study the B 2 and the Rockaways it always result the same way, more to the Brighton Line and school kids from St. Edmond to Rockaway Pk. |

The only way to know is to ask the people from the Rockaways to see if it is something they might want. I know if I wanted to go to the Rockaways from Sheepshead Bay, it is three buses and two fares. For a relatively short trip that takes 20 minutes by car, it shouldn't take 90 minutes to 2 hours by bus. |

Agree with the traveling time but disagree for the need.Look at the current makeup right now... Most Rockaway Pk customers are St. Edmond customers B 49, a handful are rarely going to KCC (B 49/Brighton), and Manhattan (Brighton/Nostrand Av line). That is a typical rush hour B 2 ridership.... Off peak weekdays (no one is thinking south Brooklyn). There is more of a potential demand for Lower Manhattan - Rockaway express services than for a South Brooklyn - Rockaway service. I've posted the B 100 should be split into and combine the Mill basin portion to the B 2 and the Fillmore Av and west to Q 22 giving Rockaway customers the option for a one - seat ride to the Brighton Line. Wiht the development of Arverne, the Q 35 needs to be extend to the current Q 21 (soon to be Q 52) terminal, again giving Arverne direct one - seat ride to the Nostrand Av Line. Overall the Q 22/B 100, B 2/B 100 combo should play well with the NYCTA/MTAB rules regarding buses needed to support the two routes (Q22 to Brooklyn would only be operating during weekdays/the new B 2 would operate the same buses currently running on the B 100) Ideas like these are needed for Rockaway. |
