BM5 via Woodhaven Posted January 26, 2015 Share #14152 Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) The 4:30 PM QM18 from Manhattan just reached Rockaway Blvd. Goo lord, conditions are horrible Seeing the bunched buses on the higher used routes is something else though. There's like 3 clusters of 3,4, and 5 buses together on different portions of the route (on the QM2).

There's like 3 clusters of 3,4, and 5 buses together on different portions of the route (on the QM2). It took almost 2 hours to get home... Got the 16:05 express bus, which got slammed with people... The next bus caught up to us... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewFlyer 230 Posted January 27, 2015 Share #14157 Posted January 27, 2015 Why does it seem like the Q25 is the only line running. I just saw one pass 15 minutes ago and there is one almost to Jamaica Ave. I checked many other routes busy ones such as the B15, Q10, Q44, M15, B44 and there is nothing. This is very interesting! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all random given how messed up the shutdown was. 3951 on the M3 will be out there for ages, not even at 8th St. downtown yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDXNYC88 Posted January 27, 2015 Share #14159 Posted January 27, 2015 With the lifting of the travel ban, all nine MTA Bridge & Tunnel facilities are now open to passenger vehicular traffic. Service remains suspended on MTA Long Island Rail Road, MTA Metro-North Railroad, MTA NYC Transit Bus and Subway Service -- including Staten Island Railway (SIR). Assessments on the bus, rail and subway network are being performed. Source: http://alert.mta.info 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, especially the portion from Grand Avenue to Maurice Avenue, that's almost exclusively hills. In other words, only the BxM2-9, BxM11 (in terms of express buses) are running.
