    We have a proposals thread for discussions like this. But I’ll share my 2 cents. 
     

    Extend the Train Cars to 480’ (that means running 8-car R160’s and potentially 179’s on the (G))

    Add 2 outer tracks at 36th Street Station and under Northern Blvd until Broadway where it can split up into 3 tracks going up Northern Blvd and stop at Junction Blvd as a Phase 1 Northern Blvd Extension. Stops will go as Follows. 
     

    Queens Plaza - (E)(G) ( (R) is rerouted to Astoria)

    36th Street - (F)(M)(G) ( (M) Service is moves to 63rd Street and all 6th Avenue service is local. (E) service gets and increase. This is part of a much Larger plan) 

    48th Street - (G) (Northern Blvd is cut open to allow for 2 Tunnels and a Local Station.) 

    Broadway - (F)(M)(G) 

    62nd Street - (G) (Potential RX Connection)

    80th Street - (G) 

    Junction Blvd - (G) New Terminal. A Potential Spur Up to LaGuardia Can be built and the Line would be extended further up Northern Blvd. 

    On the South End (East Of Bedford/Nostrand) A new tunnel should be built to connect the Crosstown Line with the Franklin (S) Shuttle. The Fankline Shuttle will be buried under its existing path and Franklin Avenue.
     

    I've definitely heard of the extension to Bedford/Nostrand from the (S). Sounds like alot of riders would be pleased if this action would be put into place

    Of course, because "do one gives a shit"....

    You aint have trouble deleting shit, your tissue paper feelings having ass intentionally replied 3 consecutive times to one post....

    Stay mad, chump.... Go tell a mod... Go tell a friend... Go tell mommy.... Go jump off a bridge...

    ...via Utica.

    Bullshit.... Just like this blatant lie that the MTA will avoid ENY as a whole, just to get people to post in this inane thread.

    Funny how you have yet to address that nonsense; other than the sorry about the typo crap....

    Sorry, don't have any time to jump off a bridge. Maybe you should jump off a bridge with your butthurt self. Baby, I'm not hurt. I would honestly be hurt if I'm a middle aged man naming their profile over a bus line. Now jump off a bridge.. via Church.

    LIRR stands for Long Island Railroad it transports riders between Manhattan and the Whole Long Island includes Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk.  There is really no reason for LIRR to serve Staten Island. Even the MTA Subways before were planning to send trains thru a underwater tube tunnel into Staten Island, and I think it is really hard to do that which was never done. Also because of the distance between Manhattan and Staten Island is too far from each other.

    Thanks for letting me know. I was wondering why the LIRR could never go into Staten Island

    From looking at the Brooklyn bus map, I don't see any parts of Brooklyn with a lack of bus lines.  People in Bay Ridge would kill for the 8 minute mid-day frequency (7 days a week) on the B37/B16 that East New York residents get during those hours on the B15.  

    For example, when your deep into East New York like where I live, the B14 is a f**king headache. One time I stood there 30 minutes for the B14 to go home. The ratio of buses going to Utica & Eastern Pkwy to the buses going to the Stanley Post office is like 6:2. And even if the buses approach there, it'll be packed.

    This isn't your forum, what's incredibly ridiculous is your god awful use of the english language (and your retorts to people's posts on top of it), and nobody gives a shit what you're not tolerating.....

    Do you think I care because I couldn't give a single f**k if my English language is trash?  No. Exactly.  And I bet nobody gives a shit about your B35 Limited via Church. Now get off my line & log off. Ironic how you say god awful use of the English language yet you don't capitalize the word English.

    That bus route makes no sense and it is confusing.

    The driving route wouldn't want to cooperate with me. So it makes these loops around the street sadly. 2. This is a route from Marine Park to South Brooklyn Marine Terminal. 3. If your confused by the 2 other routes, the other one operates to Ulmer Park Depot, (when it's out of service.) the other route is past 1AM since Marine Park closes at 1AM and opens at 6AM, making the 1AM-6AM terminal Flatbush Avenue Junction.

    Apparently, google maps platform rejected your request....

    Looking at this map, google maps might wanna reject what I have to say about it !

    Honestly, you say ignore the loops, but still, what is this????

    A lot of customers on Kings Highway in Flatbush & East Flatbush have no real use for the B7.....

    You're framing the situation like SBS is the only service type offered along Utica av.... You may have chosen it for a forum handle & all, but there's still a little something called the B46 local.

    Listen, people around here in this neighborhood gravitate towards the B46 for faster access to the (3)/(4)... The B47 is the primary option, really, only for those more proximate to Ralph (over Utica).... If Ralph were closer to Utica, I'm pretty sure those same people would be taking B46's to Utica (3)(4) instead of taking the inferior B47 to Sutter/Rutland (3).... The B7 does much of nothing for the masses along Kings Highway....

    Kings Hwy & the B7 around here doesn't remotely hold the relevance you're trying to convey here.... Outside of the actual Brooklyn Bus Network redesign itself, I'm not going to involve myself with anyone else's renditions of how the B7 should be dissolved.... With that said, IDK what the MTA has in store for the route, but if they were to do away with the Kings Hwy. portion specifically, I wouldn't wince.... Seriously doubt much of anyone around here in this neighborhood would either.

    You do make a good point. Considering the B7 ridership has gone down since 12.4% and has 5,091 riders in 2018; poorer in any other route. Thanks for your input

    - Very large volume of senior citizens use the 91st/Shore Road stop on B16, and I believe they prefer the more direct route to/from the R at 86th rather than a very long meandering route via Shore Road/69th to the R train.

    - Elimination of service from 91st/Shore to 4th/86th R train would be very unpopular. How would riders get from 91st/Shore to 86th/4th?  Would the elderly need to walk this long distance?  This would be a huge disaster with much complaining to local elected officials.

    - MTA tries to eliminate duplication of subway service.  S79/S53 already have huge congestion backups due to Verrazano delays on weekdays, and extending route to 59th/4th would exacerbate unreliability. Even if you just miss the R, the next is never more than 10-12 minutes behind and is just as fast (if not faster) than a local bus extension. 

    - Reroute of B64 via 95th makes sense (similar to old route from 86th/4th to Coney Island) as 69th St riders are already near an N train to Coney Island, and 95th riders have no direct subway so the B64 would be a big time saver for them.

    - B16 already has huge reliability/bunching problems (mainly weekdays) due to traffic in the Caton Ave area, so extending it even further eastbound is sure to cause more trouble.

    Good point, large volumes of elderly do use the 91st Shore Rd Stop on the B16, and it will only cause more outcries of citizens not getting enough service or them complaining of elimination of service.
