25 CENTS MORE AND WE CAN'T EVEN GET ON THE BUS


A request for feedback on local bus service...
Hi,
I'm gathering feedback on a section of the B67 and B69 weekday bus routes for Community Board 7 which is looking into the possibility that the current bus schedule may be inadequate to handle demand. Feedback is needed by this Friday 3/27/15.


The routes in question are the Kensington to Downtown Brooklyn direction on the stops between the Ave. C/McDonald Ave. stop and the 7th Ave./19th St. stop from 7:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m.
My experience has been that these buses (primarily filled with middle schoolers) fill up quickly at either Church Ave. or Albemarle, leaving kids and adults behind at the stops and regularly skipping all the stops between the Ave. C and 19th St. stops.

If you take these routes during these times or if you have a kid who takes them, I would appreciate your feedback (and theirs) on the experience. All responses will be forwarded to the Community Board.

Thanks in advance,
Lauren
