Posted by SMAZ on Tue Jan 29 03:25:11 2008, in response to Re: Fulton Street J/M Station, posted by Russ on Mon Jan 28 14:01:21 2008. Running a SAS service to South Brooklyn in place of the (M) enables riders of the most populous borough to have a one-seat or two-seat ride to the entire length of the CBD in addition to the UES as opposed to just the Downtown area with the current (M) service. It would de-congest the Brooklyn IRT in a very significant way. As I mentioned before I would split the (T) into two services to address capacity issues on Nassau/Montague and I wouldn't have the merge occur until after Chatham Sq unlike the operational, engineering and economic nightmare merger proposals that some here have advanced. My idea would bring the SAS to the most people even though Lower Manhattan would not have stations constructed at Seaport and Hanover Square. (which could be done anyway eventually). Having the Lower SAS not merge into Nassau/Montague is like having the Upper SAS not merge with the (Q). |
