Yes, but this setup would severely reduce the crowded train problem on the Culver Line while at the same time give riders on that line the choice of 6th or 8th avenue line service before Jay Street, with the same true on the Fulton Street line in this incarnation.1) This isn't the was to reduce crowding on the IND South Brooklyn Line; short turns have a lower PVR and don't have duplicate parallel empty capacity. 2) There's no need to give the choice before Jay. Transferring between levels at Bergen to a train that's half as frequent is massively more inconvenient. And that's without considering delays knocking on from one line to another. The current service pattern is basically fine. The only thing that should be done to the F train is a second pair of express tracks between the East River and the end of the Queens IND Local. |
