  5. B38 does not stop at Myrtle-Wyckoff unlike the other Ridgewood-Downtown Brooklyn routes... Really, I do not intend this route to go past Metropolitan Ave, as I don't know whether the demand for a service from those places to Flushing exists.. Yes the split of the Q38 and its extension will benefit me; it will also benefit the people who live along the Q38 corridor who often times would rather just walk due to the piss poor service of the Q38 right now, and the growing Asian population in this community who go up to Flushing regularly. The Q38 in its current state has the low ridership it has now because of the terrible service it provides, and simply because in many cases it would be just faster and easier to walk home from the 63rd Drive subway station than to wait for the 38 to come. I never said Ridgewood riders would want to transfer off the Q58 LTD to go on the Q38 to Flushing; that is the reason why im NOT extending the Q38 to Ridgewood and ending it at Metro Ave. The only sensible option could be to extend it out towards Brooklyn, but again that could result in making the route a bit too long & plus i don't know if there would be any demand for such a route out in those parts.
  6. Well that's why im only extending the Eliot Ave half to Ridgewood, and not both the Eliot and Rego Park half.. the reason why the Rego Park half gets sent to Flushing is because there is no direct one seat ride method right now to get from Rego Park to Flushing; all options involve backtracking out to the 58 or the 7 train.. those on the Eliot half who are going to Flushing can connect to the Q58 by leaving/entering the bus at 108th Street I dont think anyone would want to take the Q38 local route going through Middle Village and everything when they have a Q58 Limited up to Flushing.. the Ridgewood/Downtown Brooklyn routes are a different case as they are all local routes
  7. Ok I plotted out my plan for the Eliot half of the 38, in orange. Call it the Q51 there. Take a look: http://goo.gl/maps/JCGTO As for extending the 38 to Ridgewood, they already have plenty of bus routes & in addition there is already a Ridgewood - Flushing route with a limited, so it would be kinda pointless to extend the 38 down there.. maybe somewhere else..
  8. Well for Lefrak the 88 is much more frequent than the 38, so yea people would rather take that instead. the 72 isn't a good route either, but it doesn't get bunched up as bad as the 38 does based on what I see
  9. Well my idea was to extend this half of the 38 to Flushing because I know there is a demand for it in this area.. There is no convenient way to get from Rego Park to Flushing; all the ways would have to involve backtracking (R train to Q58 or R train to 7 train). The Q38 going to Flushing should bring a significant ridership boost to the whole route itself. For those living on the Eliot half, perhaps their new route can be adjusted to meet up with the Q58 in Corona. Yes it could be extended further down to Ridgewood if desired, however, how that would be done would need a bit more thought.. however I also want to make sure the route doesn't get too long or else it'll still end up being delayed and bunched up.
  10. Yes but I just wanted to show off the map i made for it lol
  11. So I finally took the time to make a map for my Q38 plans... https://maps.google....037531,0.084543 The Eliot Ave half of the Q38 would be served by a new bus route with no routing changes (since I'm not 100% sure of the ridership patterns and demographics of Corona and that area I'm not going to touch it yet)
  12. the 44s had similar motors to the 32s and 42s... damn I miss the 44's on the A, it's just not the same with a 46..
