I thought it would be a good idea to keep all M60 SBS discussion on one thread (if there is a thread for that already, then I'm sorry).
Anyways, since it's been confirmed that the projected date of the M60 SBS is to be sometime in the spring
(According to http://web.mta.info/mta/news/books/pdf/140224_1030_transit-bus.pdf pages 137-142), what are your opinions.
I found the alternatives to be of a kinda interesting nature. The three alternatives are:\
1. Implement Limited Stop Service instead of SBS service.
2. Implement only an SBS shuttle to/from LaGuardia Airport to the Astoria Blvd
station.
3. Extend the M60 SBS route to the 96 St
station.
And one more thing:
The total number of bus trips operating on the M60 will increase by 10% on weekdays, 14% on Saturdays and 13%
on Sundays over current scheduled service.
