Posted by Wallyhorse on Mon May 2 21:08:03 2016, in response to Re: (M) train during (L) tunnel closure, posted by #5 - Dyre Ave on Mon May 2 18:14:23 2016. As said, I agree, except you have that one major issue known as CBTC that likely makes QB unavailable to the (M) on weekends as that will likely be still going on during the (L) shutdown.The original idea of this was to have the (M) go to 96th/2nd on weekends only due to the CBTC situation once the (L) is shut down. It was then pointed out by others that UES residents would likely insist such a line be available on weekdays as well, which is where I came up with the (M) / (T) split that I broke down in another post. That is also why I came up with the OOS transfers to/from the (G) at Broadway (to the Broadway-Brooklyn Line) and at Fulton to mainly the 2/3/4/5/B/D/N/Q/R at Atlantic-Barclays (with perhaps a limited number of express shuttle buses that would operate non-stop between Myrtle-Wyckoff and Atlantic-Barclays to encourage people to go that route), with the main purpose being keeping as many people away from Court Square as possible. It's also why I said what might have to happen if you have ANY additional service on QB would be to have the (G) (M) and (R) ALL be extended to 179th Street so (G) riders can get the (R) to Manhattan (that I would have running 24/7 during the (L) shutdown) at Queens Plaza and avoid the massive conga line situation at 71-Continental. |
