Flatbush Av-Brooklyn College is 2338 yards away, 28 min walk. Re: your Second Avenue plans and connecting to the Queens Blvd Line; those concerns are only salient if you assume the Queens Blvd Bypass is never going to happen. My thinking is that the train has to slow down and then speed up for the stop in the station anyway. The station spacing was done to keep costs down. Also as Vanshookenraggen stated, the IND Utica Av Station will have to be teared up and relocated. Queens Blvd is one of the busiest trunk lines in the city, so its definitely a second on the priority list, and even with East Side Access the MTA has set aside room to build the connecting tracks for the Bypass. Barring a brand new line paralleling the EPL and Fulton, which wouldnt make sense as long as capacity can still be raised on those lines, the Fulton Street line looks like the only way to ever realize that greater capacity. From the South 4th St station to Eastern Parkway is another 3 miles which would parallel the existing J/M/Z trains. It was the result of a partnership between the Hopi tribe and a group of Route 66 aficionados who are dedicated to preserving the heritage of this iconic road. The full-time side at the eastern (railroad south) end has two staircases from each platform going up to a crossover (the western ones go up to a ramp that leads to the main fare control area), where a turnstile bank and two exit-only turnstiles provide access to and from the station. I chose to believe that rerouting the B/D to Williamsburg opens up far more possibilities. There were blocked stairways up from the platform level to the upper level that were removed during the station's renovation. This station's mezzanine and exterior can be seen in various points of 6ix9ines music video for the song "Kooda". This station has two fare control areas, one at either end.

Median not wide enough for a true viaduct? Thank you. Messing that up is messing a lot of commuters daily commute. Secondly is that the IND plan, like most of their plans, was wildly over designed and would require extra miles of subway from Eastern Parkway to the Lower East Side as well as a much wider 4 track trunk line instead of the IRTs proposed 2/3 track line (much like the New Lots branch the line would have been built with 2 tracks and space for a third to be added later). blend into hilly terrain. The station has four tracks and two island platforms, typical for a four-track express station. Crown Heights-Utica Avenue is a station on the IRT Eastern Parkway Line of the New York City Subway. Other sources indicate that the unused level at Fulton St.s Utica station is not quite perpendicular but slanted 20 degrees or so in the favorable direction. The point of Utica Ave is that riders are trying to get downtown so who would ever ride the 4 all the way out just to switch to the A when they could have just gotten on the A at the first place. So are you proposing adding a branch that runs north of Eastern Parkway to Fulton St? Also the train that stays down Fulton past Utica would now have 4 terminals, Euclid Ave, Ozone Park, and The Rockaways. Delays wont occur because of judges ordering you to change your practices to mitigate pollution or traffic effects.

Adding another train to Queens Blvd is a problem. 3 trains dont go to Brooklyn late nights. Atlantic-Barclays, now thats interesting. Anyone? The other spur would have led up Myrtle Ave. where the line would split again. Eliminating the bottleneck and interlining will improve frequency at Franklin so the transfer wont take too long. Then a tunnel would have to be built from Fulton to Eastern Pkwy, where the tunnel would have to be built directly under the 3/4, then a steep incline from Eastern Pkwy to Empire Blvd, so a portal could be built for the elevated line to Kings Plaza. [14] The line was to be extended along Flatbush Avenue and Eastern Parkway to Buffalo Street as a four-track subway line, and then along East 98th Street and Livonia Avenue to New Lots Avenue as an elevated two-track line, with provisions for the addition of a third track. Im not opposed to interlining but given the unique layout of the Rogers Junction the only affordable option is to segregate the services. And D as well if cut-and-cover is used. Like on the Jamaica el. Yes, and I mentioned that in the article. How can build the Utica Ave Subway? And also, what will take the (B)s place as the Brighton Express? It wont really be providing new services, since youre just substituting services that already exist. Late nights a shuttle will run from Franklin Av to New Lots Av. Its not a great idea but I was going off what I heard. I outlined my plans for 2nd Ave in a previous post but one thing I only mentioned in passion was how Phase 4 could be achieved cheaper if it was connected to Nassau St after Chatham Sq (as in, 2nd Ave would not connect to Centre St by Bowery by to Nassau St by Chambers). The 2004 artwork here is part of a series called Good Morning and Good Night. Transfer the money (like it exists!) It was first constructed as the Eighth Avenue Line in Manhattan in 1932.. One of three rail networks that became part of the . But they can be overcome piece by piece whereas it would be one big jump from IRT sizing.

Located under Eastern Parkway near Utica Avenue in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, it is served by the 4 train at all times and the 3 train at all times except late nights. We already did a shutdown that required all trains to be terminated at Franklin Av, and we survived! As you point out, the area already has subway service. This leads me to propose that the first part of the plan to be built is the Utica Ave stretch from Eastern Parkway to Kings Plaza connecting to the IRT Eastern Parkway Line but with provisions for a future extension north (all tunnels would be built to the larger B division specs). And normal service would still be able to run. And this is exactly what you or I would do in their shoes. This configuration would have other benefits as the riders who are now coming from furthest away have default express trips while the 7th Ave Express-Eastern Parkway Local 2/3 trains can now have more even headways, reducing delays. Lets see how we might mitigate the new round of issues you brought up. And its not a good alternative to the Lex, for the East Side, since the Lex is both more direct and has express trains. much cheaper and fits the mtas little goes a long way attitude. No doubt they will propose some deep bore subway with expensive stations that will take a decade or more to build. In California money itd be about 2. Past Clarendon Rd the line would split with two tracks peeling east to a new yard facility built along the LIRR Bay Ridge line (requiring land taking). The big attraction to politicians of boring subways instead of cut-and-cover is that it removes so much uncertainty. On the other hand, your SAS plans involve building at least two complicated junctions to active tracks (including one under the East River) and lots of reliability-tanking interlining. Then you can continue trains on into Brooklyn. Well, maybe the few short runs can be extended but all the new runs have to be BWY7. While there are arguments to be made for extending the Nostrand Ave Line south I would argue that with the addition of Utica Ave that demand would be reduced as riders coming from the east or southeast would take Utica over a bus to Nostrand. B46 Utica and Eastern Parkway. This Fascinating Abandoned Train Station In Arizona Is A True Piece Of History. In fact Id discount any curve adjacent to a station by about 50%.

Building a subway in these conditions means having to deal with tunnel flooding more so than normal and flooding means corrosion. The IRT built their Utica Ave station west of Utica Ave with turnouts in the track walls so that a branch could split. Abandoned Mineral . It will cost less.

This would also take relief off of the (B)/(Q) trains to the west. A 2 track line would only require half the space, 45 feet and with 100ft lots this leaves room for an ingenious workaround. But MTA really needs to build an extension down Utica because its very dense, very isolated, and very cheap to build. Well then what are we waiting for? When the IND built their lines they did so with room for expansion and most of the provisions and abandoned sections that did get built had something to do with Utica Ave. A, closer station spacing, only holds against full-length express trains.

The second plan would be far cheaper but would require that only local trains have access to Nostrand Ave while the express trains would split past the junction so that half would continue as locals and the other would run express. Building it to Water St requires all new infrastructure there and a new East River tunnel (which isnt needed) and with Nassau St located closer to the heart of the Financial District and with better transfer options (that Water St would not be able to provide) it seems obvious that its a better routing. This also makes me question realigning existing radial services into SAS. and weekends the 5 doesnt go to Brooklyn. Finnaly, the IRT Utica Av doesnt have the provisions for having a IND Utica Av, so either one of two plans will have to happen: 1- Build a Eastern Pkwy Station under the 3/4 and have a steep incline back up to Empire Blvd so it can be able to portal out wherever (originally I thought it was going to portal out at Empire Blvd but I guess im wrong).

I would have to strongly object to abandoning Phase IV; that still leaves the entire SAS and Sixth Av LES stations without a direct connection to downtown (and thus fails the objective of relieving the Lex), leaves Water St underserved despite heavy employment density, and subjects SAS to the whims of the DeKalb interlocking. And reworking Lafayette/Atlantic and Montague is all extra card shuffling that wont help Utica Ave riders anymore when they could just take the IRT express AS IS and be done with it.

Alon Levy did a back-of-the-napkin estimate of how much a mostly elevated line would cost and found it a better cost per rider than even 2nd Ave. For future expansion of the system we need to be open to thinking outside the box. Meaning if the Livonia Yards are overcrowded and a train-related incident happens at Franklin;blocking off service to Manhattan, trains can run between New Lots and Flatbush and/or Kings Plaza and Flatbush.
