Why would almost nobody be taking the J?The J offers a connection to the L at Broadway Junction. The J is close to the L around Broadway Junction. The J from Broadway Junction to Myrtle is close enough to the L that it likely would provide some relief. The shared portion of the J and M is also close enough to the L that it would likely provide some relief. Furthermore, with the M absolutely packed on this segment, increased J service could be necessary to fill the lines existing demand. I see 5 potential reasons a J increase would be needed on the brooklyn side. I suspect all 5 will hold true! On the Manhattan side- the J does provide reasonable connections to most Manhattan trunks. I agree that the M will be more popular, but there is a limit to how much you can increase it. |
