They could not have both built a station and extended the system for their budget, no.
The new signaling for the 7 will already get them to 30 trains an hour, and that will not be enough in 30 years, much less 100.
- selectodude 6y agoThe NYC Subway had a yearly ridership of over 2 billion in 1946, higher than it is today (pre-covid). One could say that we should be building a subway that can transport 5 billion riders per year and have six tracks on every line but that would be silly and there's no legitimate reason why that would be the case.
- Schiendelman 6y agoI'm not sure what you're getting at here. NYC is growing steadily, especially around that station.
