Going from APTA numbers which includes all riders, ridership is roughly stable.

2014 Q2: 2,608.2 million
2025 Q2: 2,270.8 million

Also fare evasion on SBS is higher than local buses which would also help to explain the discrepancy on the M14.

I still hope that the B71 on Union can be restored. But contraflow bus lanes on 5th Ave would set a good precedent!

Absolutely, because you also can't even find an intersection that's never had a crash ever.

G 21st really needs entrances on 48th Ave.

An NJT infill station in Union City would become one of the busiest stations in Jersey overnight.

So cool! Do you know if it's possible to convert garages with elevators? I know of one that was interested in any kind of conversion but they gave up because it was too complicated.

4:30pm press conference means he has enough time to catch the 7:50pm Turkish Airlines flight out of JFK

That makes so much sense! I always wondered why there were some old trolley poles along that street.

Where would you send the R? to Fulton local instead of a Worth St subway?

Oh I'll do that one!

Fair. "Outbound" does obfuscate the termini of each line.

This isn't specific to the L train though. They're using "outbound" everywhere except the G train.

Yes, there is definitely a conductor during the week.

Staten Island too

NYC is so bad at this. Even the Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) has its own police force!

I for one welcome the Mexico City Metro-ification of NJTransit

But reducing personal vehicle traffic creates more space for trucks.
And goods can go on freight trains if we invest in them more.

What do you think explains the 13% increase in HBLR ridership? Did service improve a lot in 2024?

North 6th St from Berry to Kent in particular is so underbuilt.

Por Siempre tacos was my favorite vegan spot.

Vegetarian tacos can be nopales, flor de calabaza or huitlacoche.

Ride the newest train line El Insurgente, the new section might be opening soon?
