Brillant93 Posted September 16, 2018 Share #24404 Posted September 16, 2018 Construction on the B46 sbs stops on avenue n and flatlands and avenue k are finished but buses still stop at the temp bus stops. Why won’t the mta fix this? It’s been finished for a few months now. Also the Canarsie construction has been finished so buses could go their original path again. Why are buses still turning down rockaway parkway to flatlands avenue? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGA Link N Train Posted September 16, 2018 Share #24405 Posted September 16, 2018 For the past 3 days, I've been taking the Q52/Q53 SBS on Woodhaven Blvd so that I can take the to school. Since I don't ride SBS often, I must say that I'm impressed when it comes to boarding. If fare evasion wasn't an issue and if all buses had some sort of security system (aside from cameras) installed, then most/every bus could be SBS, there by eliminating the title 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If fare evasion wasn't an issue and if all buses had some sort of security system (aside from cameras) installed, then most/every bus could be SBS, there by eliminating the title That's the one good thing I really like about the Q53 and Q52 SBS (and most SBS routes in general). Pay before boarding really helps speed up the buses during school and rush hours (at least from where I live in the Rockaway's). The reason every bus can't be SBS is since many routes don't warrant the ridership for bus lanes, staff to check for fare evasion, pay before boarding, not to mention the MTA's budget. 37 minutes ago, Coney Island Av said: What's going to happen with those 1996 RTS that are being stored at LGA? Aren't they being (or already are) retired? I'd assume they'll be scrapped or moved again soon? Just my opinion.

Around the Horn Posted September 16, 2018 Share #24412 Posted September 16, 2018 We often talk a lot about the lack of NYPD enforcement of bus lanes... Perhaps we could do what SEPTA and the Philadelphia Parking Authority proposed in February, where buses could issue tickets in real time through the use of their front facing cameras? http://www2.philly.com/philly/business/transportation/cars-blocking-bus-stops-septa-ppa-traffic-streets-philly-simple-fix-20180226.html Quote Here, bus drivers can use a trigger on the bus to take pictures with the forward-facing camera, Petri said, and those pictures of violators could be sent to the PPA, which would then issue a violation to that license plate. "It's astounding the number of violations," Petri said after seeing SEPTA video of violations that buses encounter on city streets. "Tickets issued per day would be astounding." The offense, illegal parking in a bus zone, would net a violator a $76 fine in Center City and $51 everywhere else in the city. While Petri anticipated significant revenue if the PPA is allowed to use bus cameras for ticketing, he expected the money coming in would decline as drivers learned they could not get away with blocking bus stops. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are very few street light cameras throughout the city. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live by the Avenue K stop and one time, I (as well as several other passengers) fly by the temporary stop there and proceed to the new bus bulb. Then another bus came to the temporary stop and we complained to the driver, who said that the other bus was breaking rules. Another time, before that incident, we were waiting at the new bus stop, and a B46 SBS bus stopped at the temporary bus stop, so we had to run there, and we complained to the driver. Even my sister had to ride from Avenue M to Avenue H on the B46 local and pick up her SBS ticket there rather than walking to Avenue N and risk the bus leaving her at Avenue K or Avenue H. 19 hours ago, SevenEleven said: A while ago, DOT took them to court and the program was ended.
