Taking local roads from the City would greatly increase the time it takes to make the trip, more so then than now because there were less cars and less traffic on the parkways on nice summer day.

That would mean that there were less cars on the other roads too....

But that as an aside, we are talking the 1930's when the parkways were in their infancy. Cars only came into general vogue by the 20's. Buses later. People are thinking of this like buses were what they are today in the 1930's, and even the 40's yet, and obviously they weren't, as buses were even still in their infancy. It wasn't until the late 40's and 50's that buses got a stronghold....
