Lil 57 Posted September 29, 2018 Share #24551 Posted September 29, 2018 Got of the 7:00 Ferry at 7:30. Every bus left expect for the 2 that I can take (and many more people) to get home (S44 and S46) It's 7:52 and none of the 2 has showed up. Guess we're dealing with packed buses at 8 PM. Oh, the S44 decided to show up at 7:52 PM. SMH 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's still half the order for ENY No. Unfortunately the New Flyers have run right up on the numbers of the Orion CNG's, so MTA decided to circle back to the other orders, when they should have just started renumbering buses. I will be posting the revised preliminary XD40 assignments within the hour. The schedule should be available tomorrow evening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure whos doing the management for these buses but whoever it is they aren't doing a great job in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically, they could just deliver 7700 series New Flyers up to 7730 where the bulk of the Orions start right now, but 7685 and 7709 are in way... I wonder what's up with 7685... Wonder if it's in a similar situation 7560 was in, in late 2017 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coney Island Av Posted September 30, 2018 Share #24565 Posted September 30, 2018 Random thought: Is the Outerbridge Park-and-Ride now permanently fenced off and abandoned? Or is it still accessible by car? I'm asking this because the SIM26 doesn't stop at the latter and there was no mentioning of its abandonment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's NYSDOT property and they still have an office on the site, so at the minimum, the workers need to be able to park there (plus, like @trife86 said, people can still carpool from there) Edited October 1, 2018 by checkmatechamp13 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around the Horn Posted October 1, 2018 Share #24569 Posted October 1, 2018 The Q64 pulled a @Deucey on me this morning... My usual op can get the bus from Forest Hills to 150th/Queens College in roughly 10 minutes. She's often the reason why I'm on time to my 9:15 Anyway today I got someone else and the guy was ridiculously slow... He took five minutes just to go from 70th Road to 108 and Jewel... Overall 20 minutes to 150th and needless to say, I was late to class. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Future ENY OP Posted October 1, 2018 Share #24570 Posted October 1, 2018 Random Thought: The B6 needs to operate via Glenwood. It’s a good thing finally that Glenwood is 2 way between East 103rd and Rockaway. However, a 2 way bus lane only from Rockaway to Remsen would be great for streamline service instead of looping to Flatlands. Let the 82 handle Flatlands service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
