Im so there Soundviews and Whitlock, this week. The t/a should of added the Bx27 since it goes there..

 

Soundviews is like 2-3 blocks from Elder station, people who live near Whitlock during late nights may need to ether get off at Elder and cross the NEC on Westchester Avenue or for going to the Pelham or walk like 4-7 blocks to the Simpson Street WPR Station. Saidly no late night buses are provided, and they cant even extend the Bx27 during afterhours =(!

 

As for the (6) split, i wonder if the t/a will relay at the (6) at 138th street/Mott haven in the Jerome. If it does, i can grab me a vid!

Dumb question. Will these 2 stations be upgraded for ADA accessible?
