I do not knw the route, but it probably made several stops. I took the B81 which began at Utica Avenue and Eastern Parkway. I thought it woud be non-stop, but there were at least two others. One at the Broadway Junction and one at Crescent and Pitkin. |

B9/B46 Riis Park Services (was: Former Brooklyn Bus Routes) |

Posted by New Flyer #857 on Fri Mar 8 08:37:41 2019, in response to Re: Former Brooklyn Bus Routes, posted by BrooklynBus on Fri Mar 20 19:02:12 2015. When these two runs went to Riis Park summer weekends, does anyone know what the schedule was like? That is, was it all B9 runs and most B46 runs (I'm not sure that every B46 going to Riis Park was necessary, though maybe in those days it was?)If it was B9, B46, Q22, and Q35 all serving Riis Park, was it just bus after bus at the stop? Also, I wouldn't have thought of Riis Park to be so big that all of those buses could be justified (probably why they stopped doing it). |

Here's part of a 1986 pamphlet that shows headways of 30 minutes for B9 and 20 for B46. The plan was to make Riis Park more accessible to more people.

That actually ran for two summers but it was a two year demonstration project paid by the federal government. It was before 1986, like between 1980 and 1982 and only on weekends. The people from Gateway were hoping the MTA would make the routes permanent during the summer, maybe even for seven days a week.Although the routes were successful with the B46 being especially crowded, the MTA refused to pay for it. The pamphlet you found if it's from 1986 was probably was the federal governments way to publicize their plan to try to get public support for it. But the MTA had the final word. Those two routes were chosen to increase accessibility from one middle class and from one low income area to the Gateway National Recreation Area which had just been created in the mid 70s to make the park more accessible. The B9 wasn't needed because the areas it serve already have good access to beaches in Brooklyn. That was why the B46 saw higher usage. |

If you look at the pamphlet, it talks about the extensions as a present reality and includes the MTA-NYCT logotype. Therefore it actually describes service in 1986, unless the plan was cancelled at the last minute. |
