Robert Caro's assertion about the overpasses being built too low for mass transit of any kind accessing Jones Beach is not only true, but totally in character for the man.It's still urban legend, and one man's assesment of opinion, that people take for fact. I have not seen one piece of solid evidence that makes that claim a fact, other than speculation. If I remember what Caro wrote, he said that buses would fit in the center lanes but the overpasses were too low for the outside lanes. And because bus drivers could not be sure that their buses would fit in all the lanes, they wouldn't take the risk to use the Parkways at all. |
