Re: RPA: The Fourth Regional Plan: Create a fully integrated, regional transit system

Nowadays a lot of NYC subway lines have major reverse-peak ridership.

The MTA does not examine their hourly ride totals, until somebody publicizes their obvious oversights. Then they issue a statement that nobody could have predicted such growth. Case in point is the Canarsie Line. It took them 10 years to notice that it was the most crowded Brooklyn-Manhattan crossing. They did not use the current demand, when they ordered the R143's for CBTC use.

A comparison of the 2000 and 2015 NYMTC's Hub Bound Reports shows that the outbound hourly morning totals are consistent for these two years for the Lex express and local at the 60th St cordon. You will have to wait a couple of years for NYMTC to release 2017 data that would include the SAS.
