  • October 5, 2016 Veronique Hakim President, New York City Transit
    UNITED STATES HOUSE THE NEW YORK THE NEW YORK THE COUNCIL OF THE OF REPRESENTATIVES STATE SENATE STATE ASSEMBLY CITY OF NEW YORK October 5, 2016 Veronique Hakim President, New York City Transit Metropolitan Transportation Authority 2 Broadway New York, NY 1004 Dear President Hakim, Please restore the M15 Select Bus Service at 72nd Street. The M15 Limited stopped at 72nd Street until it was phased out in favor of M15 Select Bus Service. With high bus-dependent populations, infrequent local service, crosstown bus service, hospitals, community support and opening of the Second Avenue Subway with a station at 72nd Street, now is the perfect opportunity to increase ridership by restoring M15 Select Bus Service at 72nd Street. 72nd Street Only Location Omitted from Select Bus Service When Select Bus Service was introduced to First and Second Avenues on the M15 route, Select Bus Stations replaced Limited Service stops in every location above Houston Street other than East 72nd Street. Since October 2010, residents living in the East 72nd Street area, for example at 73rd off York Avenue, now must choose between walking three avenues and six blocks, more than half a mile, to a Select Bus Service bus station at 67th or 79th Streets and Second Avenue, versus half that distance to 72nd Street. Walking more than half a mile in both directions is simply too far for many residents. High Concentration of Seniors and Children Need Select Bus Service at 72nd Street The neighborhood that would be served by a Select Bus Service station at 72nd Street includes Census Tracts in Manhattan number 124, 126, 132, and 134 spanning from 69th to 79th between 3rd Avenue and the East River with a population of 44,756, one of the highest near any Select Bus station: 8,679 or 32.7% of households include children (under 18) or seniors (65 and over) who may rely on bus service due to age: o 3,326 or 12.5% of households have children under 18 years-old.

  • Bus Rapid Transit for New York City
    Bus Rapid Transit For New York City Prepared for Transportation Alternatives NYPIRG Straphangers Campaign June 2002 Schaller Consulting 94 Windsor Place, Brooklyn, NY (718) 768-3487 [email protected] www.schallerconsult.com Summary New York City has the slowest bus service in America. NYC Transit buses travel at an average speed of 7.5 mph. On bus routes such as the M96, M23, M15, Q32, BX35 and B63, the average speed is 6 mph or less. That buses are traveling in slow motion is obvious to everyone, especially riders, who rank it the most serious problem with bus service. Slow bus service discourages people from taking buses, especially for work trips where travel time is critical. Slow bus service contributes to very long travel times to work in New York City, as shown by the latest census. Bus service is slow for many reasons. Traffic congestion is clearly a major factor. But other problems are just as important: • Buses spend as much as 30% of their time waiting for passengers to board and exit. • Increased crowding on buses due to ridership growth has lengthened delays from boarding and exiting. • Traffic signals are not synchronized with bus speeds, so buses are delayed by red lights between bus stops. • Drivers often have to slow down to stay on schedule even when traffic is light. • Bus field supervisors lack the tools to prevent bus bunching. SCHALLER CONSULTING 1 Summary (cont.) Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is a promising strategy for improving bus service. By applying features used in rail service to bus service, BRT can make buses faster, more reliable and more attractive.
