Q43LTD

I guess the Q1 and 16 are like second cousins lol. Both aren't in the top 10 in ridership in the borough but have multiple branches

The B53 to me is like a domino effect. It is scheduled to replace the existing B24, 32 and Q24. Overnights, it will operate between Broadway Junction and Wiliamsburg. I still see people piling on the and though

So there's the Q16 proposed to end at the current Q31 terminal. Stub, perhaps? Then there's the Q61 and 62 routes. 61 rush hour only, 62 7 days a week. They're acting like the Q16 is that busy. As far as the Q30 and 31 goes, I think I saw more 30's than 31's during their QV days. Still wondering if they were ever interlined with the Q43 prior to 2005. To me, they're nothing more than blue and white school buses lol

The 72 doesn't. But the Q48 and M60 do service Terminal A Marine Air

You mean LIJ. Plans for a Jamaica North Shore route were in the original redesign

All this talk about neighborhoods makes me want to reopen my thread from a few years back lol

I would say the distance between Linden and Merrick is too large of a gap not to have bus service

The bold part was actually proposed in 2009.

It's not set in stone, but it seems likely. My only gripe with the Q57 is that it ends at Little Neck and Hillside which is a stub. It may have been better off ending at the current Q36 terminal

Didn't the B8 have a part time branch to the Brooklyn Terminal Market until 95? IIRC, the Brooklyn bus map labeled the area as East Flatbush. Remsen Village and Paerdegat Basin are subsections of Canarsie I suppose?

The Q82 is going to go through anyway since they wanna get rid of the 36 and 110 for a "semi" through Jamaica Av route

Currently there is a connection between Roosevelt Island and Queens Plaza in the 102. It's unfortunate it'll be split in 2. The 104 extended west and a new 105 on 31 St. Most it not all of the buses on 21 will serve Court Square instead of Queens Plaza.

According to the Church Av will be an accessible station in the future, but yeah that's not a good place to end a bus

So, I'm hoping that idiotic Q1/6 combo is off the table in the final proposal. Which means, the Q1 will do Jamaica-Bellerose with no branch to Queens Village LIRR. The Q6 will more than likely go to JFK Cargo replacing the Q7 which is supposed to be the through Rockaway Blvd route. Still think Cedarhurst-Inwood is a stub though. Ditto with the Q10/64 combo. I was hoping the Q9 could stay south of Rockaway, but it seems the Q10 130 St branch will stay. I guess the reasoning with the Q55 to Jamaica is to negate taking the Q56 to the or taking the to Myrtle for the or Broadway Junction for the . I suppose with this Queens redesign, they want to connect the dots and eliminate backtracking to Jamaica or Flushing. If the can define those terms

That was the Q60 until 2010

In the redesign, the 17's E 80 St branch becomes a proposed B76. It will start at Broadway Junction though.

Highly doubt that since the 25 is College Point and the 77 is Jamaica

Speaking of...Merrick and Springfield seems like a stub too for the 25 and 77

Worse than that Beechhurst St Albans route it was originally planned for

I would do the Q65. Farmers and Liberty seems like a stub. Also, the 85 and 86 don't need to run to Green Acres 24/7. Rush and limited are kinda the same thing. The proposal for the Q83 to me is a bit vague. No mentions of its Queens Village LIRR branch during overnights

So the routes that terminate at LIRR stations, don't have the station or the abbreviation on the signs

Which is why the Q20 shouldn't be curtailed at Briarwood...As far as the 25 and 65 being idiotically extended to eastern Queens, ehh...

What hospital?

I don't mean to go off topic, but I like how the ridership statistics for the ex private lines weren't available until 2011.

Would the proposed Q109 still exist in your plan?
