Again, you are not making actual operational sense.There aren't enough cars to extend the (G), period. There aren't enough cars to send the (R) past Continental. There may be just enough cars to send alternating (M)/<M> to Parsons or 179 during peak if Continental bogs down with fumigation/turnaround delays. All pax from Met or east of Myrtle should be discouraged from changing to the (G) unless they are heading south; or outbound on QB. Riders from Bedford should get direct shuttle buses hitting Marcy/Bway and Grand/Lorimer. For those needing any Manhattan destination, the travel time via the el (especially during rush) is sure to be less than taking the (G) to the (E)(M)(7). If service on the (L) can run from Lorimer, a bus bridge to the el should be made the preferred transfer routing for Manhattan, not getting on the (G). Otherwise, bustitutes should favor funnelling Manhattan-bound (L) riders to Bway over the (G). |
