Posted by Wallyhorse on Sat Feb 13 03:15:44 2016, in response to Re: Disaster At The Community Board Meeting, posted by #5 - Dyre Ave on Fri Feb 12 10:10:32 2016. People are going to be PO'ed no matter what happens.It's also been noted elsewhere shutting down one tube at a time could make this as long as SEVEN years to do it. If so, that I don't think is exactly going to go over too well and make 2-3 years of both tubes being shut down being more palatable. I'm operating as if both tubes are being shut down and spreading out riders as much as possible (even if it means PO'ing some people because that is inevitable no matter what is done). And as noted, on the Queens end, what I would do is have (at least on weekdays) the (G) (M) and (R) all go to 179th since that would get the (G) to QP and beyond and likely take pressure off the (E) and (M) from riders who normally switch to the (G) at Court Square (in this, with the provision if there is a jam-up at 179, trains on the local can move to the express after Parsons Boulevard (skipping 169) and terminate on the express track. Obviously with CBTC, weekends are going to be an issue since then you would probably still have the (G) run as it does now to Court Square. CBTC is also why I would have the additional (M) trains signed as (T) going to 96th/2nd since that would be 24/7 (6-7 TPH all times with 3 TPH late nights) since it would likely be difficult most weekends for the (M) to be running to 71-Continental during CBTC work. |
