It's the adding of the extra step that's the problem. as far as they care, the ferry is even worse. consider, the Staten Island boats have a top speed of roughly 12. Hoboken to WFC is a ten mintue trip. Hoboken to WTC on PATH is also 10 mintues at 1/3 of the price. then they need to get inland when they reach the other side, since a large portion of job are nowhere near the ferry dock, and neither is most of the public transit network. the ferry from Hoboken to WFC requires another 10 mintue walk to get to the hub |
