Many people have mobility problems or are physically sick and the subway is not friendly to them. Elevators and escalators, at station that have them, have high breakdown rates. Stairs are killers. AT this time, there are only so many local bus routes into the city over the bridges. Even if these people would take the buses, likely 3 buses would be needed.There are many hospitals in the city which have patients from all 5 boros. I myself have 2 bum knees and neuropathy in both feet. Subways/buses/walking is not an option. Believe me, I do not like paying tolls and parking fees. There are many specialty hospitals in NYC, like Sloan Kettering Cancer Hospital, NYU Medical Center and so many others on the East Side on NY. |
