The graph of ridership for the L-train showed that L-train ridership continued to RISE even after the implementation of the current orange M-train.So why should improving M-train service result in less ridership or less crowding on the L-train? Could it be that while there may be some overlap in the ridership destinations for some riders, that there are plenty of riders who feel that they are best served by the L-train, regardless of whatever happens with the M-train? Any improvements at the Broadway-Lafayette station especially for uptown riders would not only affect M-train riders, but also riders for the various other lines, as well. Access to and about mid-town can be accomplished in many ways, and mid-town is a pretty big place. I have a friend that regularly travels from 14th Street-Union Square to Livonia Avenue. Now just how would improvements on the M-train help him? Plenty of riders have various origins and destinations. If the L-train needs improvements, why not just improve the L-train? If the M-train needs improvements, why not just improve the M-train? |
