    Myself as a public transportation user, i hope the BRT/bus lanes don't get hijacked by EV and HOV users. end up with slower bus lanes with car conjestion.

    It is pretty funny really and ironic the "FedEx Express" is stuck in a traffic jam. Not very express at the moment lol.

      Photographylover it's a good bus lane

    And you probably end up with far more people in that one lane than in all of the adding ones!

    Honestly they should only have one lane be for private vehicles and the rest be for public transit. You wanna own a car and commute into NYC? Fine, but not at the expense of others who are willing to commute by transit.

      When I first read the first few words, I thought you were stupid but now I realize that that’s a great idea economically, financially, and environmentally.

      I heard that NYC wants to do a "congestion charge" like they do in London

      I agree the bus lane should be for public transportation only. The push is from the EV community to allow Tesla's and EVs in the bus lanes. Which i hope does not happen. You just defeated the point of bus lanes.

      been saying for years that private vehicles shouldn't even be ALLOWED to enter Manhattan at all, save for emergency situations and things like that. once you've lived in or immediately around Manhattan in the other boroughs, you start seeing things a little differently.

      Just toll them high enough, and use the proceeds for more buses.

    For those of you wondering why MTA Buses are in New Jersey, it’s normal. They go through New Jersey without stopping there just to get to Staten Island and Manhattan.

    I remember about 7 years ago I took a greyhound bus from Philadelphia to NYC . Ending up taking a bus only lane cause I left at 7am from Philadelphia on a weekday.

    Bus lane seemed to be moving faster but more traffic in the other lanes than the other one, although ride seemed a lot bumpier

    Toronto buses have a little on-board computer screen that the driver can consult along every route.

    2:00 в одном легковом автомобиле максимум два человека. в автобусе 50 пассажирских мест. едет 4 автобуса=200 человек. 200 человек это 100 легковых автомобиля. мысленно уберите с дороги 100 легковых машин? сколько пространства.
    а вы стоите важно в пробке и дышите гадостью.

    I see 3 lanes full of traffic back as far as the eye can see probably and there all forced into a what looks to be a toll road and then a tunnel that splits off to 2 lanes if they want to boost the economy then they needs to find a better way to keep the traffic moving

    I at times ride the express bus and feel for the folks sitting in traffic as I whizzed by on the bus lol. That traffic backlog sometimes starts at the toll exit 🫣
