Posted by Kew Gardens Teleport on Sun Oct 11 13:26:08 2009, in response to Re: Bergen Street Lower Level, posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Sun Oct 11 12:37:38 2009. The IND in Brooklyn was poorly designed.Just in Brooklyn? ;-) Yes, it would be much better if the G could use Bergen Lower. most notably the interlocking where the Nostrand Ave line diverges and the Flatbush Ave terminal itself. And now we're onto the IRT. They should extend the platforms so that there isn't an express/local distinction between Franklin and Utica. Then have all Lex to New Lots (and extend it to Howard Beach!) and all 7th to Flatbush (and extend it to Manhattan Beach!). The problem here is that riders will NOT surrender their #5 service under any conditions, so #2 riders here will continue to get screwed. The terminals as presently configured couldn't really cope with much better anyway. Between Woodlawn and Flatbush something has to give. |
