Posted by Wallyhorse on Wed Dec 14 16:29:53 2022, in response to Re: (Originally posted 2016) Moving the R to Nassau/making the W full-time, posted by William A. Padron on Wed Dec 14 05:57:25 2022. Again:It's satisfying pols in Bay Ridge who wanted the (R) split into two lines because of the (R) being known as the "rarely" in many cases because it gets so badly delayed. Shortening it to Canal on the Nassau Line on weekdays would likely END a lot of that long-running issue (and even running it nights and weekends to Metropolitan to absorb the (M) shuttles is still shorter than Queens Boulevard with fewer mergers). And even with half of the (W) trains going to 9th Avenue on the (D) solves most of the issue of those going to the west side of lower Manhattan as those south of 36th and do a same platform platform transfer anywhere between 36th and Court. That right there solves a lot of issues with the (R) by switching it to Nassau. |
