They built the circulator with the parking lot station outside the loop as it made more sense to do that. They decided to put the LT parkinglot station on the Howard Beach branch, because it made sense to do so.To avoid a semantics problem that some here find an injustice, they could have not had the "free" station on the same branch as the HB leg of AirTrain. That would have avoided the semantics problem of some paying, and some riding "free" on the same branch. But doing so would have makde the loop longer (as it would have had to loop to the LT parking lot instead of only to Federal Circle and more expensive to build. So they built it with the one station outside the loop instead, along one of the branches. That causes a semantics problem to some people that find an injustice, but it's much more ifficient operational because of it. |
