A lot of people like extending the
but IMHO that doesn't really solve anything. is maxed out ATM peak direction. What I would like to see is a 34st Crosstown (8) Train complement the :
Start at Hudson Yards-34st
Stop at
7/8th Aves-Penn Station (Connect to
)
6th Ave-Herald Sq (Connect to
)
5th Ave/Park Av (Connect to
)
Once in Queens, turns under 11th st in LIC:
Stop at:
Vernon Blvd-Jackson Ave (Connect to
)
45th Rd (Right next to Amazon)
43rd Ave
It emerges alongside the Astoria Line portal and goes into a rebuilt N side of QBP. From there it uses the existing 2nd Ave El Trackways to join the
then runs along a new 3-track upper level structure all the way to Willets Pt.

I agree with the consensus that the SAS needs to be extended to the Bronx, but instead of running down 3rd Ave I'd just shoot it straight up Webster. Run both the N/Q up there with the W taking over the Astoria Line. N/Q can even form a skip-stop pattern peak direction:
-Gun Hill Rd
-Mosholu Pkwy
-Fordham Road
-E 183st
-Tremont Ave
-Claremont Pkwy
-E 168/167sts
-E 161st
-3rd Ave/149st
-3rd Ave/138st
-125st
-116st
-106st
-96st
-86st
-72st
Both trains make all stops from there

Hi, everyone!
Any Q66 riders here? Why is this bus so unreliable? Jammed packed and always bunched. I wonder if Mr. Byford will look to address this when he takes a look at the Queens bus network. I was excited to hear the possibility of SBS on this route but it looks like that won't happen anytime soon.

Department of Subways - Proposals/Ideas
in New York City Subway

Idea for 5th Ave Subway:
The 5th Ave subway starts at 1st Ave and Delancey Sts where 2 tracks from the Nassau Line and the 2 from the Williamsburg Bridge form a 4 track trunk running up 1st Ave. The line then turns down 14st (Under the
) with a stop at Union Square. Then the line heads up 5th Ave making these stops:
23rd st
34th st
42nd st
50th st
59th st
Two tracks terminate at 59th st (provisions for extension built in) for the
while the other two take over the 63rd st tunnel to Queens.
Queens Blvd would look like this:
The reason I think this works better than continuing the 2nd Ave line south is because a line down 5th puts you within walking distance of all the offices along Park/Madison/6th aves. People will use this versus trying to pack the Lex.
