Posted by E and F and sometimes J on Fri Mar 23 21:21:26 2012, in response to Re: ''LIRR: Jamaica Capacity Improvements''{Brooklyn Scoot} & ''Fulton St T.C.; Next Great Destination'', posted by The Silence on Fri Mar 23 20:50:02 2012. One elevator for each of the IND platforms. The front mezzanine slightly extended west because the stairs are at the front of the platform. The elevators will be behind the stairs.One elevator (should be two) to rise from the IND mezzanine to the LJZ mezzanine using a balcony against the wall (Jamaica Van Wyck) to connect to the LJZ mezzanine from near the foot of the current escalators. For example: /= escalator going up/down ]= elevator ]/= when you transfer from the subway to the el's, this is the new configuration to the LJZ mezzanine. The JZ platforms will each have on elevator just west the stairs from the perspective of the mezzanine. There is room for that. The L platform to Canarsie already has a ramp so the elevator there is not necessary. The Manhattan bound L platform will have one elevator at the top of the ramp, a cross over (like at Junction Blvd), and another elevator to the manhattan bound platform. It's very simple. Seven elevators minimum although I would suggest two elevators connecting the IND to the BMT el's. |
