Political ploy keeps some NICE routes the same

It seems there is a political game with NICE come april 9 with the routes nor cut listed below:

N4,6,15,22,23,24,25,31/32,35,40/41,48/49,71.

Every other route is either cut or changed.

Doesn't seem political to me, looks like they are maintaining service on the core routes of the system. Well, core routes and the N23 which they already cut last round.

Have you ridden the N31/N32 lately? I haven't been on the N15 or the N40/N41 lately but they have always been heavily traveled routes. The N6 is the busiest route in the system followed by the N4.

What is saving the N4 and N6 from cuts are LIRR's high fares.
That isn't helping the N19 though.

Intra-island fares are more reasonable. The last I remember it was $3.00 from Babylon to RVC (now is probably $3.25). No transfers (except maybe with a monthly UniTicket) but still...

I would guess the same would go for the N22 & N24.

Not quite - the n21 will now operate rush hours, evenings, and Saturdays. No Sunday or midday weekday service.

No extra n20H short turns to pick up the slack.

The only one I can think of is the Q58 LTD (obviously the local is 24/7)
