Posted by R30A on Sat Nov 10 20:00:58 2007, in response to Re: SI residents on MTA Fare Hike, posted by (SIR) North Shore Line on Sat Nov 10 14:26:52 2007. 1. If any line was extended to SI, it would run via brooklyn. Going via brooklyn would likely be significantly easier to build.2. If any line was extended to SI, it would likely not be the 1 line. Even though the 1 isnt likely to be overcapacity in SI, there is no reason to extend an IRT line when you could get a much higher potential capacity extending a B division line. The SAS will have a TBM digging in roughly the right direction when it reaches Hannover Square. It would likely be a smarter line to extend. 3. There is NO REASON WHATSOEVER not to connect the line to the existing SIR system. It would likely also make sense to connect the line to the north shore line, so that a decent sized portion of Staten Island would have direct service to manhattan. |
