Some Q37s won't serve Aqueduct due to low ridership; relabeled Q37B

I don't think it'll be much of an issue. If the riders aren't there for it, service won't stay that way. Plus, even without direct service it's in walking distance still.

Literally, on the destination sign - "Bypass Aqueduct".... smmfh....

 

Anyway:

 

Why does he have the new sign up if the service change doesn’t start till Sept 3?

Every Q37 trip never served the casino to begin with (which is what I find funny with this Q37b bit).....

 

What they're trying to convey is that there'll be less trips during the span (which varies, depending on which direction you're traveling) with which every Q37 serves the casino.....

 

The way I see it, it's immaterial if he has the Q37B signage up... It's one of the morning trips that isn't stopping in there anyway :lol:

The destination sign says where the bus doesn't go

Yeah.... and what, pray tell, gave you the impression the opposite was being conveyed?

Or is this some sort of a defense of yours of the MTA with this move.....

 

Regardless, you run the risk of having more people board the bus (that are seeking some specific destination) by putting the destination on the destination sign in any facet....

 

Generally speaking, the MTA's been improving with the info. shown on the destination signs - spelling entire words out & doing away with the myriad of abbreviations & what not..... However, this bypass aqueduct bit is unnecessary; and I see it being rather counter-productive on top of it....

 

The point of a destination sign is supposed to reflect where the bus is going, not where the bus is not going....

 

That "Aqueduct Bypass" signage is unnecessary. Who wants to bet eventually it will be alternating 37's not serving the Casino.

I'm betting that's the minimum....

 

I'm expecting there's gonna be significantly more "37B's" than "37's" throughout the core of the day

(meaning, not including the trips in the morning that already doesn't stop at the casino)....
