That's a charter bus in the photo of course...they weren't around in the 1920's when Moses designed the parkways....But thanks for the dimensions of the school buses, I took note of the size limit on most of the bridges, since I was thinking about it behind this school bus.... And most said 10 feet and some were 12 feet too, add some inches. (One was 12.2).... So I guess they are allowed. Now comes the other question....I guess since we have Moses in this conversation....what did buses look like in the 1920's when the parkways were designed? My gut is they were the size of current school buses. I am amazed that the bridges on the JR Parkway were all over 10 feet, I thought the bridges were actually lower. And that parkway is one of the least upgraded of any of them it would appear (again, aside from Bethpage). |
