  1. So after all these years MTA has been profiting off NICE Bus' s rent, while everyone thought MTA no longer has business with Bus service in LI? Sent from my SM-G550T1 using Tapatalk
  2. Why are those buses going to a NICE Bus depot? Sent from my SM-G550T1 using Tapatalk
  3. Rockville Center??? Isn't it still managed by NICE Bus? Sent from my SM-G550T1 using Tapatalk
  4. Well RIP Bx36 1947 - 2017 Sent from my SM-G550T1 using Tapatalk
  5. I heard XN60s will be on the Bx6 +SBS+ next year, DOT should find a solution for the 155 St Bridge, that curve at the intersection is a knife cutter, thing is sharp as hell that 40 Ft buses have to make a wide turn into the 2nd lane to make it through, I feel that the DOT should have expanded the turning radius at the Macobs Dam Bridge.

  6. I would suggest making the Bx36 LIMITED exclusively articulated, that route is SARDINE HELL in there. There is more than enough artics to cover the LIMITED, hopefully by the time the XN60s come in we get a permanent solution but from now to March 2018 that's what needs to happen to just balance out the route, it's too crowded but at least it's on time on a average basis.

  7. MTA does lack passenger information regarding detours, closures, short turns, service suspension, etc. MTA needs regional co-operation, BrooklynBus says multiple lanes of construction can cause delays, well in a Regional Coordination MTA would be able to work with the DOT on detours, or even regulating traffic patterns on city streets, and or providing alternative transportation, or Temporary LIMITED service routing via a detour to make up for lossed time, or even work with the DOT to adjust signal timing of add Transit Signal Priority at 'Delayed Green' signals or intersections with deep traffic saturation to mitigate the delays and also adjust street designs to prevent the DOT from making strands of spaghetti cluster on perfect roads with this vision zero crap. Regional Coordination needs to be advocated into the table and everything needs to work together and equally for a more transparent transportation network that works together to find solutions, not independently growing deplorable service and transportation like nowadays. Just how the "Summer of Hell" with Penn Station, DOT needs to change all roadway patterns and regulations in the area to smoothly accommodate traffic and bus service around Manhattan with enough traffic lanes, and smooth traffic.

  8. I agree with Garibaldi, Tuskeegee has been pulling this little game out for too long, I used to live in Washington Heights right where the M101 Terminated/Began and there were times they would even have missing runs than borrowing buses to fill them in because if it wasn't an old rustbucket then the run would be f*cked. Now that Tuskeegee has 45 XD60's they should split evenly the amount of XD60's to the M101, M102, and M103, same thing for the LFSA's and send as few of the D60HF's as possible and give them a DEEP CLEANING, THOROUGH REPAIR, & FUNCTIONALITY, because honestly those buses have been run down to the ground without a break. The older a bus is means more responsibility cleaning and maintaining a bus. TTC for example had neatly clean Orion V' s despite their age, you can't exclude or discriminate a bus by the age, each bus is the same, and gets the same maintenance standards which Tuskeegee ain't doing.

  9. Nice Bus has been run down into the ground, the biggest mistake ever and the chances of MTA returning to Long Island for Bus service is not foreseeable at this point, Nice Bus will be the death of Nassau County public transportation and many people will face to the LIRR on jackloaded trains God forbid that ever happens, Nassau county never did it's job and if MTA were still there and I was county executive, I would unite Bus, rail, Ferry, and cab service into one. Nassau County decided to become an etcetera and screw up everything and turn a 100 Million rider system into Pure Horse Sh!t, Its sad but the truth, and I feel instead of Bill deBlasio flaming Cuomo on the news, they should both restructure the board into a universal transportation organization with local neighborhood, county, city, and state working together finding solutions than this 'Do your own sht' type of motto, and be unified, organized, and efficient delivering the transportation needs of the 21st Century.
  10. Would there be a way that would have been possible to salvage 1205?
  11. So your saying 8017 Was rebuilt in stages at different service centers?
