Posted by Wallyhorse on Sun Nov 1 01:49:51 2009, in response to Re: Subway Lines on the Manhattan Bridge to be affected due to bridge work, posted by Grand Concourse on Sat Oct 31 15:21:29 2009. It is a bit of a walk, roughly 2-3 blocks from westernmost exit of Broadway-Lafayette B/D/F/V station (on Houston Street) to the entrance for the Prince Street R/W (N overnights) station.It would help if a transfer could be built to where you could use the north end of the Prince Street R/W station (perhaps extending the station northward to accomodate this?) so you can have transfers between the R/W and the B/D/F/V/Downtown 6 (and eventually uptown 6 once the new transfer opens in 2011). That would probably take pressure off 34th Street/Broadway/6th Avenue, which is generally not the easiest of transfer points to begin with between those lines, plus, you would be able to transfer between the Broadway Local and (for now) the (Downtown and eventually the uptown) 6 in a MUCH easier manner than at Canal Street, which is clearly NOT the easiest place in the system to accomplish that transfer between the Broadway Local and the 6 (and 4 overnights). This transfer might very well be worth doing. |
