Yes, and by providing cost effective services, they serve the most people. A bus driver on the QM1 is lucky if he moves 150 people in a day. A driver on the M15 would be having a bad day if he only moved 1500. The M15 driver is providing ten times the amount of people their transportation, yet doing so at a similar cost. If you have a choice between which route to fund, it is a no brainer. You keep the M15.Sure, the MTA could extend the M to Continental. In fact, I think ridership would justify it! But considering the fact that QB Will be getting a shit ton of CBTC work over the next decade, you'd end up paying all those M crews to sit around when their picked jobs get cancelled week after week. Nobody wins, except for the crews getting a working vacation. The money would better go to provide weekend service somewhere where it won't be cancelled every damn weekend. |
