Although weekend traffic is heavy on the L Line, it would be easier for weekend patrons to find alternative ways into Manhattan when traffic isn’t as heavy on alternate routes like the G, E or Willy B than it is for weekday passengers to try to fit themselves in crush loaded trains on other lines. Additionally, weekend ridership, while important, is discretionary since it is not as necessary for passengers to seek entertainment in Manhattan as it is for them to get to places of employment during the week. It could also prove to be a blessing in disguise for entertainment venues in Williamsburg since they could provide similar quality entertainment within the neighborhood increasing their revenue. It might even spur the opening of additional night spots within the neighborhood as well. |
