Threxx Posted April 8, 2013 Share #651 Posted April 8, 2013 I propose an extension of the J/Z lines from it's current terminal in Jamaica Parsons/Archer to Queens Village. It will make stops at these locations: Merrick Blvd-168 Street, 179th Street, Woodhull-Hollis Avenues, Francis Lewis Blvd, Hempstead Avenue, and Springfield Blvd. I agree with this, but I have a couple questions: Would it continue along Jamaica Avenue? Would skip-stop service continue to Springfield Blvd? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Line would go straight up westchester until the double level Simpson Street station with a 2 way junction at simpson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MooreTransit Posted April 30, 2013 Share #660 Posted April 30, 2013 I'm trying something more on the base of a Queens Bronx Connection. The purple (8) train would run with the train from Queensboro Plaza. After reaching all the way to Flushing the train would run to these stations- (Roosevelt ave) -Flushing- Main St -Parsons Blvd -150 St (Turn onto Northern Blvd) -Crocheron Ave -Utopia Pkwy (Turn onto Utopia Pkwy) -29 Av/Francis Lewis Blvd -21 Ave (local only) -16 Ave (local only) (Merge onto/ run alongside Throgs Neck Bridge) (Merge of onto ?Pennyfield Ave? At SCNY) -Maritime College -Harding Ave (Merge onto 177th Av/cross Bronx expwy) -Miles Ave (Merge onto Tremont ave) -Randall Ave -Lafayette Ave -Bruckner Blvd -Waterbury Ave (Local only) (Merge onto Westchester Ave) -Middletown Rd -Buhre Rd -Pelham Bay Park End of route Whatever types of trains that would run, they'd have to be compatible with the trains on both the and lines due to the route. (8) Bronx-Queens connector- Pelham Bay Park (8) Bronx-Queens Connector- Queensboro Plaza I feel this one might just work. This would run along with my newer route hence improving the purple lines. The (8) will now reach eastern Queens and Bronx, hence improving the system 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulrivera Posted May 1, 2013 Share #663 Posted May 1, 2013 I'd extend the past Woodlawn, run it into Yonkers and terminate it at the Cross County mall. It would stop at: 233rd/Jerome McLean Av/Central Av Yonkers Avenue (Raceway) Cross County There's way too much political and NIMBY red tape for this to become reality, but if it were built, it would be quite the money maker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queens Plaza is east of Queensboro... and is also only three blocks away.Yeah, I know that but because its running on Steinway the tracks would kinda run under both...so I kinda just said it would terminate under queens plaza sometimes and other wise just stop at Queensboro Plaza... For lack of a better plan. I was mainly concentrating on the Steinway/ LaGuardia parts, not the beginnings and ends.

I agree- A east west Bronx route could come in handy... The best idea I could think of was a shuttle or an extension of the unless this east west route connected to Queens...hmm... Maybe a Fordham Rd route in the Bronx that connects to Eastern Queens... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rtrain4thAv Posted May 5, 2013 Share #670 Posted May 5, 2013 My name is Rtrain4thAv and I am new to this forum. This is my first posting, so my fantasy subway route would be an extension of the via 63rd Street & the Queens Blvd bypass using the LIRR mainline to Jamaica to Glen Oaks via Union Turnpike. It would be express at all times via the bypass between 21st Street/Queensbridge and Continental Av-Forest Hills, then peak directional rush hours express between Glen Oaks and Forest Hills. This route would utilize a mix of fleets: 75% R46 and 25% R68A. The Queens Blvd-Broadway local via 60th Street would be replaced with a revival of the , plus the Crosstown would be extended Stops, in order from northern terminal (express stops between Glen Oaks and Kew Gardens in bold): Langdale St/80th Ave-Glen Oaks (northern terminal) <R> Little Neck Pkwy Winchester Blvd Springfield Blvd-Grand Central Pkwy <R> 215th St-Bell Blvd Francis Lewis Blvd-Cunningham Park 188th St Utopia Pkwy <R> 164th St 150th St 138th St <R> Kew Gardens-Queens Blvd <R> 75th Road-Ascan Av Continental Av-Forest Hills 21st St-Queensbridge (lower level) Lexington Ave/63rd St 57th St-Midtown 49th St-7th Av Times Sq-42nd St 34th St-Herald Sq 28th St 23rd St-Madison Sq 14th St-Union Sq 8th St-NYU Prince-Houston Sts Canal St-Chinatown Chambers St-City Hall Cortlandt St-WTC Rector St-Trinity Pl Whitehall St-South Ferry Court St-Brooklyn Heights Jay-Lawrence Sts-MetroTech Center DeKalb-Flatbush Aves Pacific St-Barclays Center Union St-Park Slope 9th St-4th Ave 17th St-Prospect Ave 25th St-Prospect Park 36th St-4th Ave 45th St-Sunset Park 53rd St-4th Ave 59th St Bay Ridge Ave-68th St 77th St-Bay Ridge Pkwy 86th St-Bay Ridge 95th St-Fort Hamilton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threxx Posted May 8, 2013 Share #671 Posted May 8, 2013 http://goo.gl/maps/WZBAf The new line between Bedford Park Blvd (current stop) and South Ferry.

BreeddekalbL Posted June 5, 2013 Share #672 Posted June 5, 2013 (edited) since the shutting down the montague street tunnel is being proposed for the coming year, i would propose running the R to court street on the brooklyn end and the manhattan end ends at whitehall street. even though this is not a proposal thread since that one was closed. i also designing an extension of the 6 train extension into co-op city will be done within the hour. hopefully this will make the people there happy what more service do they need lol EDIT: DONE! https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&gl=us&ie=UTF8&oe=UTF8&msa=0&msid=218345366120084192601.0004de60db4d16138b2ed Edited June 5, 2013 by BreeddekalbL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
