MHV9218 Posted October 25, 2013 Share #226 Posted October 25, 2013 So here's a more tactical one... There's a fire at Quill overnight. All the workers and operators are fine, but 250 of their 270 buses are lost, with the exception of a handful of LFSAs and NGs that were in service at the time. How do you make service on the Quill lines the next few days before loaners from SEPTA and NJT can be brought in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring in spare buses from every available depot and see what can be used from Eastchester. Expect delays on every route out of Quill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you make service on the Quill lines the next few days before loaners from SEPTA and NJT can be brought in? Borrow extra buses from other NYCT Bus, MTA Bus Depot, and Bee-Line Bus Depot. Borrow spare buses from NJT Bus, CT Transit, spared ADA accessible charter bus and cross honor MetroCard passengers, well as NY Waterway Bus. What if entire MTA Bus/Subway, SIR when on another strike? What will be your contigency plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if entire MTA Bus/Subway, SIR when on another strike? What will be your contigency plan. Simple, no buses run, and use the subways where available.

P3F Posted October 25, 2013 Share #236 Posted October 25, 2013 What if entire MTA Bus/Subway, SIR when on another strike? What will be your contigency plan? -NICE and Bee-Line are not a part of the MTA. By your guidelines they would be unaffected. Solution: -Extend NICE routes further into Queens and extend Bee-Line routes into the Bronx and some into Manhattan. -Wait until the strike is over.
