I don't know if that's so...the coimplaint last time was the local service was provided by the G which didn't go to Manhattan where the vast majority of riders want to go...and even those not going to Manhattan would face an inconvenient change at Hoyt-Schermerhorn if they wanted A service to Jay Street and lower Manhattan (you know up and down right?) via A service or just wanted to get off at Jay Street.The current idea to provide V service would not have that problem (of course many people get very hung up on the letter used as witness the continued controversy about the switch of the B and D although Brighton people have a very valid point when they point out the MTA screwed those people who want Sixth Avenue service when the B is not running by not providing an across the platform transfer at DeKalb when one can very very easily be provided but that's for another thread)...somehow people might feel demeaned if they get on at Carroll Street and have to take a V train rather than an F train; absurd yes but that's the way some people think. Solution..make the V the Express and full time service to CI and terminate the F at Church Avenue...this would easily resolve this problem. |
