The 6:00 PM S86 trip was basically converted into an S76 trip which seems stupid because the 6:03 PM S76 Short turn still exists. The 6:03 PM trip is probably going to be carrying air most days now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 6:03 PM trip is probably going to be carrying air most days now. I agree. However the dispatcher might have the 6:03pm trip load up and leave first and then have the 6pm trip load up with those who couldn't fit onto the 6pm trip, plus those traveling south of the SIE (or he might just make it a limited anyway). As for the Q111/114 the new schedule is on Trip Planner and on the GTFS feed. The interesting thing is that it says Q114-LTD for the entire schedule, which implies that it runs overnight as a limited. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any evidence to support that theory even though the redesign is not even nearly done or you wanna look at the Q114 again? Until further notice: Q114 is detoured via Rockaway Blvd and Guy R Brewer Blvd in both directions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q35: While there's more service to/from Riis Park, it's coming at the expense of significantly less service to Rockaway Park. Service from Riis Park to Rockaway Park now runs every 30 minutes instead of every 15 minutes during the midday. The PM and evening service is no longer on a consistent interval. Saturday service runs every 15-16 minutes during the day (roughly every 20-24 minutes in the evening) between Rockaway Park and Riis Park, compared to every 10 minutes before, with a few exceptions. Sunday service is roughly every 20 minutes between the two points (instead of every 10 minutes). With that said, most of the ridership during the summer comes from Brooklyn, and the headways are roughly every 5 minutes throughout the day. Q7, Q8, Q41, Q47: I've covered the Q7 changes in the OP. The others have only minor runtime changes or internal schedule design changes (zero change to bus service). Q22: The more substantial change is that weekend service operates every 16 minutes west of Rockaway Park (instead of every 24 minute). Also, service runs to Riis Park for the summer. Q53: The Q53 summer schedule has basically been uploaded (8-10 minute headways throughout the day during middays, evenings, and weekends). Q66: There's a change to the overnight schedule. EB service departs Queens Plaza 5 minutes later (now departing at :25 and :55). Q111, Q114: Overnight service has been boosted to operate every 30 minutes instead of every 60 minutes. Combined local service on Guy R. Brewer Boulevard during the overnight hours operates every 15 minutes. I personally feel like the boost in Q114 service in particular will catch on, especially since the just sucks.

Both observations are basically right. Oddly, SMART does such route changes and never does public hearings, while DDOT may tweak routes but still holds public hearings because they're also including other headway changes. The DDOT hearings I've been to have always had limited push-back from residents to any changes they want to make -- in fact, most of the time people are elated. So right now, they're probably fielding any complaints, and (if they're smart) watching the customer counts at each stop, so that if there's any negative reactions/numbers they can revert back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the reconstruction on Springfield Blvd, I've seen a few buses that couldn't make that U turn down there at 145th Road. There were few changes in the area traffic wise once the reconstruction was done..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
