Q43LTD

What did you think of the B1/64 swap back in 2010?

I like how the Bx28 and 38 are combined as one route, but not the 25 and 26 And don't forget the M116, Q4, Bx18 and some Staten Island route will be free as well

Top 10 by borough: Bronx Bx12 Bx1/2 Bx9 Bx19 Bx36 Bx6 Bx40/42 Bx7 Bx41 Bx28/38 Brooklyn B6 B46 B82 B44 B35 B41 B1 B8 B38 B15 Manhattan M15 M101 M14 M86 M4 M96 M34 M3 M102 M11 Queens Q58 Q27 Q65 Q44 Q10 Q25 Q52/53 Q46 Q23 Q17 Staten Island S79 S53 S48/98 S44/94 S46/96 S78 S93 S74/84 S61/91 S40/90 Express SIM1 X27/37 X28/38 SIM4 BxM7 SIM10 BxM9 SIM3 SIM8 SIM33

I see it. Thanks

That ridership link should be its own thread

Which of these swaps are worse, the 49/68 or 48/69 or equal?

I only used the once. It's only from 179 to 212. Maybe I should have took the instead

Actually, the N24 is open door as far west as 239, or that changed?

It will still go to Jamaica, just in the form of the 57

My only nitpick with this 82 is that it should Hollis Court in both directions. Maybe the 77 could have remained at 145.

I suppose make it a "rush" or "limited " or revert it back to standard 40'

Yeah it was definitely overkill with the 39/67 swap. Routing and service spans. Similar with the 26/27 swap (Even though the 26 regains off peak and weekend service for the first time since forever). As far as the proposed 63/69 usage. I think it would be 50/50. Weekends the 63 may get more patronage if there's no local service between Jackson Hts and Queens Plaza

Yes. The B40 and 78

Who's ok with the B60 proposed to be split into 2, but routes like the B6, 43, 47 and 82 aren't

Thar name does not ring a bell. I'm not on any transit groups on Facebook

2026 sounds too far out. Wouldn't it be shortly after Queens is implemented?

Yes, that's what I meant. I wonder is Coney Island being overserved in this redesign

Nice shots!

I guess they're trying to make Hunters Point like a "mini hub" like it was back in the day with the free 69 and an extended 103 during the PBL days

Then there's the B10/12 situation. I feel the 10 should have went to City Line Cypress Hills

I was referring to the Q66, not the 63. I should have been more clear

I still feel the 69 could have went back to Prospect Park SW. It's similar to the 49/68 swap to the south.

Fall of 89 to be exact when the Queensbridge station (then ) opened. I guess the felt it was a stub and sent the 66 to Queens Plaza in 2007. Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of this proposed 63 if it were cut back to Woodside?

According to the stats, this is how each route ranked in their respective borough: Bx18 ranked 34th out of 37 routes. This was pre redesign of course. The B60 ranked 28th out of 54 The M116 ranked 18th out of 38 The Q4 ranked 27th out of 78 The S46/96 ranked 4th out of 22

I thought the whole point of these "redesigns" was to get buses off narrow streets. Hence why we have routes like the Q57 and 109 proposed.
