That I agree with (though I would probably do it as a slightly modified rebuild of the old Bronx part of the 3rd Avenue El), however:

If you build the 125th Street crosstown part of the SAS, which as I would do it would terminate at 125th Street from Broadway to 12th Avenue, complete with a transfer to the 1 train, connections to/from the 8th Avenue/CPW/Concourse lines should also be built. Such connections, especially if there is later on a dedicated Bronx branch of the SAS or at least a second terminal available at 126th/2nd would allow for when needed the A/B/C/D lines to be diverted in either direction from the CPW/8th Avenue/Concourse line to the SAS. It would also as I would do it allow 125th/Broadway-12th Avenue to become a terminal for one of the CPW/8th Avenue lines (most likely the B or C train, leaving the CPW line after 110th or 116th Street) as well as an SAS line (and if the C train did terminate at 125th/Broadway, the T could replace the C from 125th to 168th, giving extreme upper manhattan riders a one or at worst an easy two-seat ride to the east side).
