How are they disadvantaged if they already have and will continue to have their services though?Because you can't have G, R and V service operating simultaneously on the Queens Boulevard local tracks. Only two lines can operate at once, and since the R and V are what the majority wants, then that's what operates. Operating the G and R would be inconveniencing those who want to go to Manhattan, which, last time I checked, are the majority. Yes, you can transfer at Court Square, but that still is an inconvenience and really does not solve the problem compared to the situation at Queens Plaza. So you won't have any R service to Manhattan. The V offers an extremely viable substitute to Broadway local destinations, as you can simply walk. |
