I thought with all the extra prevost they were getting they would have enough to fill for queens I mean they just past 2600"s I've seen 2600 2602 and 2605 on the X1 today

I find this is a troll are there any legit pic or Bus time screen shots? And if they are short on buses why don't they use them from other depos I know Bronx and SI always have a few extra

I didn't know we had that can you link it please

Going back to what I said a while ago an Express route to the East Bronx from downtown is very possible considering that plenty of queens express bus route exceed 1 hour in travel time and this is also a downtown route meaning its going further. My BXM5 idea saves people time from not having to transfer to the BXM18 which is already slow, and transferring adds to a person's trip than my proposed route. So here are some of my other ideas: BXM5 AM:

Okay some notes: X51 and X52 are the same in Queens one servies Midtown the other Downtown X51 Follows a route similar to it old route however its extended to Bayside I feel the original reason it got was because it did serve enough neighborhoods, it was too short which meant it wasn't reaching all potential customers.) X53 Okay I know near Douglaston the roads are very tight, but the X17, X21, and X22/X22A also travel on some very narrow roads with drivers speeding through them, so it's not impossible. X53 Where the bus turns around that area would need to be readjusted to handle buses making U turns. X53 Not all buses have to start there, maybe like two in the morning and two in the afternoon the rest could coming back. The rest can start and end at Northern blvd.

Also don't forget the QM17, I remember i got on it trying to get to the LIRR station in the rockaways, and at the last stop the driver told me to GTFO and run because of how bad the neighborhood is. Speaking about the BXM4, how the heck is it even an express bus seriously it doesn't really even have an express portion it just a long ass LTD route.

hey you guys can edit it yourself and post your ideas

lol k what about this much shorter https://www.google.com/maps/dir/40.7091394,-74.0021077/40.8762219,-73.8300816/@40.7501676,-73.826705,12.75z/data=!4m49!4m48!1m45!3m4!1m2!1d-74.0104065!2d40.7032416!3s0x89c25a1447a52117:0x6b264302dd5853b!3m4!1m2!1d-74.0145873!2d40.7057481!3s0x89c25a117cf00025:0xac7136cbdc4e2d01!3m4!1m2!1d-74.0084715!2d40.7129225!3s0x89c25a18e9bc3035:0x32b4df768446996b!3m4!1m2!1d-73.9338774!2d40.7372543!3s0x89c25ecd723fad2d:0x82e5ebcbc8ab2eee!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8352298!2d40.7505518!3s0x89c260749cd33e03:0x569c84a56adc58a!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8289069!2d40.7741254!3s0x89c28aa7e5df23cb:0x8d4868eb827af3d9!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8262909!2d40.852005!3s0x89c28ca76cde5c3f:0x77d9e9d719e951b5!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8226378!2d40.8640928!3s0x89c28cbc6ac978cb:0x5001c71492b7d6!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8299522!2d40.8712889!3s0x89c28cb80045b85b:0x4da6210bef0d93c!1m0!3e0

hey it just an idea there are a lot of express buses in the corroder none of which go downtown having 1 that covers most of those areas and goes downtown could be useful

Hey Guys i just wanted to give a random idea to a new Express Bus route serving Queens, The Bronx and Downtown Manhattan I'll just call it the BXM5 for now https://www.google.com/maps/dir/40.7091394,-74.0021077/40.9033503,-73.8501519/@40.7059111,-73.9962636,15.25z/data=!4m59!4m58!1m55!3m4!1m2!1d-74.0109145!2d40.7031078!3s0x89c25a1469e5ec53:0x519a35ddcb197de1!3m4!1m2!1d-74.0148257!2d40.7051737!3s0x89c25a117cf00025:0xac7136cbdc4e2d01!3m4!1m2!1d-74.0084796!2d40.712926!3s0x89c25a18e9bc3035:0x32b4df768446996b!3m4!1m2!1d-73.9212148!2d40.7330781!3s0x89c25ec44756b577:0xe293513dbe198754!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8686664!2d40.732417!3s0x89c25e49104adb93:0xa082781be3d9754!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8387897!2d40.758087!3s0x89c2600bb46df09d:0xae695c327b054f5a!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8288481!2d40.7742024!3s0x89c28aa7e5df23cb:0x8d4868eb827af3d9!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8274219!2d40.8320609!3s0x89c28b4783b29103:0xfc0261cfa9c99a43!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8263149!2d40.8524372!3s0x89c28ca712d6a6d7:0x713f3b2f227bdc12!3m4!1m2!1d-73.821829!2d40.8645049!3s0x89c28cbc30d393d5:0x4243327d6307b460!3m4!1m2!1d-73.82813!2d40.8785734!3s0x89c28cc50878ead3:0xeb5c237c92cfabcd!1m0!3e0

Yeah that could work too but let's say x22 ran midday every hour cause let's face it if they gave midday service it wouldn't be 30 min and 1 hour head ways are common in other boro's then wouldn't that be the first and only line the run through jersey off peak which could cause other concerns cause it's something the MTA jade t done and the x17 already has 3 branches which is already a lot so this would be interesting to see a solution that can fit everyone's needs but your right about how it's faster to take the local bus so that already implies that the x17 isn't really popular past Arden heights especially since it looks like it goes all over the island in the map

I know 40 is annoying but it's only before the transit center starting at the transit center onwards it's 20min from additional buses starting there and the reason why I gave that idea was because whenever I take the x17 to Manhattan which would be from SI mall there very little people usually around 3-5 ppl then after the mall the bus becomes almost full so that why I think service after the center need to be increased but before the center could survive a decrease of service

X1 midday This is a bit of a stretch, but, since the X1 has a lot of midday service, I was thinking to speed trips up that every other X1 between 8AM-2PM would use the FDR Drive serving only downtown and 23rd at and above along 6th Ave. X17 midday Buses start at Tottenville every 40min, but also every 40 min at the transit center, causing wait times past the center to be 20 min. All buses to SI go to Tottenville, and depart every 20min. X17 weekends All or every other bus goes to/starts from Tottenville. X21 Rush hour New departure at 8AM Change pm departure from 5:00-5:300-6:00 to 5:00-5:20-5:40-6:00 X22 rush hour All morning buses serve the park and ride. (this is an effort to help encourage people to use it considering there is more x17 service than x22a service when ppl would need it most) Please don't wreck me, these are just ideas.

I'm just hoping that these trains have more leg room especially in the seats that are meant to have large groups of people
