You may be correct that the crossover east (er, south) of Bway/Laf could have been retained, but after deciding that it wouldn't be, they should have installed one west (er, north) of Bway/Laf as part of the Chrystie project, even if it meant removing several pillars and reconfiguring the steelwork. The absence of such a crossover has stifled re-routes and possible diversions, and that lack of flexibility has come back to bite them (and us) in the ass many many times. The only way to the Brooklyn-bound north side of the Manhattan Bridge is from the downtown lower-level express track at W4 St, and the only way to that track is from the downtown 6 Av express and local tracks north of W4. |
