  1. Would routing the B35 down 8th av be a smart move or nah?
  2. Yeah, regarding the direction issues, NYCDOT needs to make it bi-directional. Now, I could instead reroute up 65th St. I rerouted the B14 via VA Hospital to gain more ridership, and created the B16 which runs from VA Hospital to Parkside Av via Fort Hamilton Parkway. I also extended the B12/B13 to Kings Highway.
  3. @RTOMan I had a question, I had wisdom teeth surgery last week and have my pre-employment tomorrow, would the anesthesia or pain meds show up in my drug screen?
  4. This list has been established since 2016, that's close to 7 years. I know it's not your fault, but either stop extending the list or schedule another exam and call off both. The way they keep doing this, it's going to continue to be a lose-lose situation.
  5. This is what’s annoying, there’s thousands of people who want to take another exam to get it, but if they keep extending this list they’re never going to get past this crew shortage.
  6. Exactly, decades ago. Things have changed since then, and all the signs point to true crosstown connections.
  7. Some other changes: The B11 and the Eastern portion of the B6 after Flatbush are combined to form the B16 to form a new crosstown route.
  8. Are all of those accident buses sitting in Eastchester marked for scrap or on hold?
  9. Well, the entire southern B division is a mess right now.
  10. Well, I rerouted the B69 towards Bay Pkwy instead of Bay Ridge, and created a new route from Bay Pkwy to Bay Ridge/Shore Rd.
  11. Fare evasion, that's why. With all these new reforms, it's impossible to combat fare evasion and making all routes all door boarding is only an invitation to do it.
  12. This is literally my idea of the extended B35 to Belt Pkwy.
  13. If you have toll violations would these impede your registration process at ?
  14. Now, I could extend the B13 to the Brighton Line, but would it use Avenue P or Quintin Road?
  15. Nah, it get's confusing with all these Bay streets. I uploaded a map to make it easier.
  16. Map update: B12: DUMBO to Bay Pkwy & Bay Ridge Ave via 7th Av. B13: Bay Ride-4th Av to Bay Pkwy & Bay Ridge Ave. B14: Church Ave Subway Station to 86th St Station. Thoughts?
  17. Actually, it seems the last 4 departures on the 6 all do that split shift. Looking at the GTFS data, it seems all the 6 trips that operate between White Plains & Pleasentville are interlinked with another route, like the 63. I guess it is to balance out the driver paddles, but how do customers who want to get from Yonkers to Pleasentville have to do? Pay again? Also, the first XE40 hit service on Friday.
  18. I’m very surprised the hasn’t been suspended with how this COVID surge is going. The headways have been absolute crap though, and without the , service on CPW has been horrible.
  19. That’s unfortunately what I’m worried about.
  20. Route Extension: B67: Extended down 16th Av (over former B23 routing) to Bay Ridge Pkwy, then via B64 to Bay Ridge/Shore Rd.
  21. @B35 via Church Listen to this craziness: So the last northbound 6 out of Yonkers RR ends at White Plains at around 9:54 PM. However, there's ANOTHER northbound 6 that starts at White Plains and goes all the way to Pleasantville that starts at 10:10 PM. Now I can not for the life of me figure out why there are trips like this that exist. Would it not make more sense to have just one bus run the whole route as opposed to 2?
  22. If anyone here drives a bus in Manhattan, can you tell me what it's like? I hear stories about how Lex & 3rd Av are a mess, especially with the delivery bikes all over the place. Any pointers?
