You don't wanna get to St. George and realize that you have 30+ minutes until your connection comes. They should have buses match every ferry. With buses connect every other ferry, if you don't catch the right ferry, you're be forced to pay for a cab if you want to get home as quickly as possible. If they really wanted to make SI service as efficient and cost-effective as possible, they'd route more South Shore/South of the SIE routes to begin/end at the train and use the train as the main route to the Ferry. They'd also implement a bus-train-bus/train transfer system for SIers as part of that. Tottenville to St George routes are really a waste of money because of the inefficiency.

This Wikipedia article should say more about the 3-leg transfers. Quote EXCEPTIONS: Two transfers are available with MetroCard for the following transfers. The transfers must be made in order or in reverse order, and the 2-hour rule applies. Between bus routes crossing the Staten Island Railway south of the Staten Island Expressway, the Staten Island Railway through St. George Ferry Terminal, and then any MTA local bus or subway service below Chambers Street in lower Manhattan. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTA_Regional_Bus_Operations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
