Buses have been allowed on the parkways for some time now. I've been seeing school buses on the parkways for over 20 years now. The big NYC Transit express buses regularly deadhead on the Grand Central towards the Nassau border. I remember when I was a kid in the 60's if we went on a school field trip to the city (I went to school in East Meadow) the bus would either take Post Avenue to the LIE or Merrick Avenue to Sunrise, NEVER the parkways. But things are different now.As far as I'm concerned NO trucks or buses should be allowed on the parkways, and that should include vans, pickups, or SUV's, period. To me "passenger cars only" should mean just that. |
