P3F Posted October 1, 2018 Share #1981 Posted October 1, 2018 The westbound sign reads "BENSONHURST ÷ BAY 38 ST", in contrast to the older "24 AV ÷ CROPSEY AV" (or "25 AV ÷ CROPSEY AV"). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTSTdrive Posted October 1, 2018 Share #1986 Posted October 1, 2018 On the 82 select as I speak and a few things off here: 1) Seems my driver forgot the memo that the 82 Select was supposed to turn on to Avenue K for Kings Highway instead of continuing straight to Flatbush via Flatlands. 2) Seems that some fare boxes are still taking MetroCard seeing that a few people got on without the driver saying anything 🤷♀️ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence St Posted October 1, 2018 Share #1987 Posted October 1, 2018 On the B82 SBS right now, seems like bus lanes are needed in more areas then they should. Trucks are still blocking traffic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bulk of that traffic is between East 16th and Coney Island Avenue which is the main commercial district. Trucks have to make their deliveries along the commercial district. What are the hours? 10-3? or during rush hour? Had the re-route was on Avenue P. There wouldn’t be any issue to that problem. However, there are no entrances at Avenue P for the so the issue will continue to present it self on Kings Highway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truck loading zones are set to middays, although the actual times vary between spots. An example of one is 10 AM - 2 PM. After 2 PM that segment becomes normal metered parking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMDH I took the 82 today and it wasn’t slow at all. Actually it took off about 4-6 minutes off my commute home today. But it also could be because it’s a Jewish holiday today and tomorrow so we won’t really know how it does until everyone is back at work or school. 1 hour ago, Future ENY OP said: Here’s my issue.

However, there are no entrances at Avenue P for the so the issue will continue to present it self on Kings Highway. The issue with trucks are exactly lack of loadings zones... well until know. As I said up top you have people who’ve are parking in these loading zones prohibiting trucks from parking. Unless DOT and the NYPD actually do something about it congestion is still going to be an issue. But my experience with the 82 sbs has been good just for today. The busses were frequent more so than the old limited and they weren’t as crowded. Funny how the local was still crowded while sbs buses weren’t, but I guess people have to become more familiar with it over time. I really wished they would introduce it for the weekends because it’s needed in my opinion. I’ll post more about the 82 throughout the week because it is a religious holiday time so that route hasn’t seen the true traffic yet.

Interested Rider Posted October 1, 2018 Share #1999 Posted October 1, 2018 Today and tomorrow are religious holidays so that ridership may be lower on the Kings Highway portion of the route. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
