BM5 via Woodhaven Posted June 30, 2019 Share #1 Posted June 30, 2019 (edited) Here are the service changes that will go into effect on Sunday, except for SI routes. I was unable to review SI routes because of the MTA decided to go all apeshit on the amount of summer changes, and I pretty much got fed up after Manhattan and Queens. Not only did the amount of routes on summer schedules increase, but the amount of changes/messing around has also increase (just compare the amount of changes below to that of last year). Not only that, but the MTA decided to release these later than usual, without any warning that they were on the new website only. Anyways, here the changes the boroughs I reviewed: The Bronx Bx1: Summer Service Reductions, LIMITED Service Reduced Early AM service will operate every 20 minutes instead of every 6-10 minutes.

The 3:20 PM trip from Flushing will now depart at 3:10 PM. Service from 4-5 PM will operate every 20 minutes instead of every 15 minutes. Don't you mean, "A new 9:06 AM trip from Fresh Meadows to Flushing will be added"? That trip wasn't there before and it is now (just like the 5:10AM trip). https://new.mta.info/sites/default/files/2019-06/q026cur.pdf 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DetSMART45 Posted June 30, 2019 Share #4 Posted June 30, 2019 (edited) Thorough analysis that's nothing short of amazing. The biggest thing that sticks out to me is how the vast majority of these changes are not part of the list provided in the May Committee book -- summary page 203, charts after Staff Summary on pages 207/208. Now, those changes were limited to headway changes on the B63, M1, M2, M3, M4, M7 and M55 weekdays and B4 Saturdays; only trip adjustments for the B3 and B74 weekdays, B24 Saturdays, and B11 and S51 Sundays; and (in the fine-print) run-time changes for B35/LTD and Bx46 weekdays, B35/LTD, M1, M2, M3, M4, M12 Saturdays, and B35/LTD, M1, M2, M3, M4, M12, Q46 and Q85 Sundays. Quote from the Staff Summary regarding these changes: Quote On April 19, 2019, elected officials and affected community boards were notified of these changes and invited to come speak at the New York City Transit and Bus Committee of the MTA on May 20, 2019. Curious ------ were the Community Boards along The Concourse, for example, warned that the Bx1/Bx2 service was going to be adjusted to essentially force customers off the Limited onto the Local, or that -- somehow in this "service" economy we live in that operates 24/7 -- across all of these routes customer counts are going to drop during the summer months as in years/decades previous? (EDIT ADD: It'd be one thing if APC was being used in conjunction with Metrocard farebox scans to justify some of these changes, but the MTA just "found out" that APC is available ( ! ) for buses, something DDOT has used since around 2004 for making schedule changes.) I could possibly see adjusting trip times on Express Buses a bit, due to possible summer ridership decreases, but not along Local routes. Service already is abysmal year-round, but let's get people really riled up during the hottest months of the year.

It always ran overnight, but the overnight trips followed the "D" branch to Chelsea Piers. Now they go to Abingdon Square along with the daytime "A" trips. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was unable to review SI routes because of the MTA decided to go all apeshit on the amount of summer changes, and I pretty much got fed up after Manhattan and Queens. Not only did the amount of routes on summer schedules increase, but the amount of changes/messing around has also increase (just compare the amount of changes below to that of last year). Not only that, but the MTA decided to release these later than usual, without any warning that they were on the new website only. Anyways, here the changes the boroughs I reviewed: Queens Q114: Service Change in Rosedale (Schedule Not Out Yet) Service along 147th Avenue and Brookville Boulevard will be discontinued. Service will run along Rockaway Boulevard in both directions. Use Q111 service for 147th Avenue. So what is the point of the Q114 over just reverting it back to the Q113? Because its Local in the Rockaways? Is this capitulating that the Q114 experiment was a failure? Edited July 1, 2019 by Lennyj17 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BM5 via Woodhaven Posted July 2, 2019 Author Share #21 Posted July 2, 2019 I appreciate the responses in this thread. With that said, I will be reviewing and posting any SI bus changes soon, as long as updating the list above to include additional changes not shown on the MTA website before I posted. On 6/30/2019 at 9:28 AM, Gotham Bus Co. said: Don't you mean, "A new 9:06 AM trip from Fresh Meadows to Flushing will be added"? That trip wasn't there before and it is now (just like the 5:10AM trip). https://new.mta.info/sites/default/files/2019-06/q026cur.pdf Yes, I'll fix that when I release an updated list. 2 hours ago, Calvin said: I don't know if this fits the topic, but with SBS artic routes all over MJQ, the M35 during the PM is now out of Tuskegee Airmen Depot. That sounds more like something that would belong in the Fleets & Depots thread. This doesn't really cover internal things, rather just the physical (scheduled) service provided. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're still there. I rode one yesterday and saw a few others. Heading westbound, the short trips turn left on 3rd Avenue, right on 13th Street, right on 4th Avenue and drop off in the M1/M2/M3 stop, then turn right on 14th to deadhead back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
