Nobody said to truncate all the buses at Secaucus. Some frequncies can go through, others will not. Let the market and surveys decide how the scheduling is done.In any case, minimizing trip time trumps number of transfers. Northern Virginia once had 33 "one seat bus" routes to DC. Now they have 3 because Metro got built. They bitched for a few months, they got over it, and eveyone is better off because of it. Ditto for Portland and MAX. The thru buses became train feeders. You can't keep stuffing Penn Station with more and more people. I think 650,00 per day is quite enough. There is not going to be any new rail tunnels to lower Manhattan, no more lower Montauk, no connecting ESA with Gateway, forget it. I have never been able to figure out mow many people ride each of the 4 weekday PATH routes. |
