Posted by EastSideRider on Tue Feb 28 15:58:18 2012, in response to Re: Upper East Side Residents Protest Proposed Subway Entrances, posted by Wallyhorse on Tue Feb 28 00:52:55 2012. Actually....2010 Annual Ridership 68 St-Hunter College (6): 10,165,641 Station Rank: 30 Lexington Av-53 St (E)/(M)-51 St (6): 18,025,148 Station Rank: 12 And keep in mind this is just people leaving (or entering?) the turnstile. The transfer at 51st is VERY busy, even outside rush hours (I used it for many years, so I can personally attest to it). To add the 4/5 at 51st, adding a transfer between local and express AND to the express to the IND, adds even MORE traffic to a station that has too much as is. Not to mention it slows down the already slow ride due to the new stop and the door holding that's common there. |
