It is that LENGTH that increases the cost of building and operating a line, not the time it takes to traverse. And not only is the Jamaica segement longer, I am certain that it cost more to build, considering the manner in which it had to be built. Yes, but that's true of any line. The 6th Ave express was perhaps the most expensive to build in the system up until that time, yet it doesn't cost more to ride a B than it does to ride an F. Yes, the Jamaica line probably cost more to build, yet most systems don't charge more (i9f they are flat fee based) to travel the further distance (which of course would have cost more to build). Some do of course, but not all. |
