Posted by R160 8818 on Mon Jan 28 21:02:33 2008, in response to Future phases of SAS, posted by Wallyhorse on Wed Jan 23 07:24:21 2008. Building a SAS-Nassau Connection would make more sense than to have trains terminate at Houston Street and transfer to the F to the J/Z to reach Lower Manhattan. The MTA should consider the connection as part of Phase 3 so that riders can access Lower Manhattan via this connection. It also has a huge advantage of stopping at Canal Street (where there are transfers to the Bridge Lines, the Broadway Local and the 6) and Fulton (where there are transfers to many lines) and finally it could enter Brooklyn via the Montague and could be sent to the Brighton, Bay Ridge, Sea Beach, West End.Transferring at Grand will only provide access to the B/D which connects Brighton Beach and Bensonhurst. There is no transfer at Chatham Sq, Seaport or Hanover Square so this connection is much needed. |
