Posted by Edwards! on Thu Feb 4 21:46:41 2016 The is no question that the 4Th avenue subway has suffered since the removal of the M line several years ago.Even the MTA has somewhat acknowledged this fact. The cure to the R lines woes are essentially simple as adding 2 plus 2...a supplemental service to take up the slack. The J is the perfect candidate if it were enhanced on Both ends. As we all know..rush hour service has been a joke ever since 1988.. We need a full time Broadway Brooklyn express,along with a full peak period skip stop service along Jamaica ave and Fulton st. 4Th ave needs a full time service to replace the shuttle...but not a full 600ft train. It needs a supplemental service to replace the hole left by the M...it needs a perminent Gap service to cover the Usual long waits between R trains as due to merging conflicts... A J line extension will also restore a broken problem concerning connectivity between Lower Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn.. 1) Return the J line to pre 1976 levels of service...full Broadway Express service between Essex and East New York. Skip stop rush hour service between Jamaica and ENY lasting the entire peak period. Extend J trains to 95th street as the full time 4th ave Local...move R trains to the former 9th ave terminal. 2)enhance Z train service to operate weekdays all day as the local service between Broad st and ENY.Rush hours from Jamaica as it does now. |
