I don't believe the MTA has a aparticular bias against the riders of any particular line.Of course not. Only people that love to wollow in a pity party think that. They want: (a) To give Queens Boulevard local riders the destination that the large majority of them want to go to (Manhattan), even at times when there are G.O.s reducing the capacity of the Queens Blvd line at nights and weekends; (b) to increase the frequency and reliability of the G line without needing more trains and crews. That's exactly it. The G is better served once it can increase frequency and length of the trains with the trains freed up from the Queens Blvd segment, a segment only a small amount of people use anyway. Most of the G's use on Queens Blvd was for the purpose of jumping from a local station to an express station along Queens Blvd, not for people going through to Brooklyn. That purpose serves those stations much better with a Manhattan local. |
