MTA to provide more Queens bus service later this year

From the Queens Tribune:

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority announced this week that it will soon offer additional rush hour train service and weekend bus service due to high demand.

Last week the Queens Tribune published a feature titled “Surviving The Summer Of Hell In Western Queens” that informed borough commuters regarding delays and closures that are expected in the upcoming months.

The president of New York City Transit has since announced that additional A, D, E and F subway trains will operate during weekday rush hours beginning in November. There will also be additional Q6, Q8, Q29, Q47, Q49, Q101 and Q65 buses on the weekends beginning in July.

So more buses, stuck in gridlocked traffic. Sounds great.

I thought they were already running the maximum amount of trains during rush hour?

This is a farce. When you look at the details it's like one extra train every 30 minutes for select 90 minute periods. That's not going to do anything.

Wasn't the 63 Street tunnel supposed to speed up Queens Blvd subway service? Years ago??

there's been an influx of dollar vans in Rockaway. Driven by stoned lunatics - get rid of them.

They wouldn't be there if there was a better alternative.

Bla Blasio is more concerned with providing fancy computer screens than actually fixing thing because his polysyllabating snowflakes don't want to get their hands actually dirty fixing engines.
