haha - i know and my source is work too. i guess that is the best we are going to get for crosstown services in the bronx for quite awhile. the gun hill express route will be great, but do not get you hopes up for crowdy, winding tremont. my comparison is the new 181st busway priority or whatever they supposedly did or are doing in wash hts to get you to the bx and back -- it does nothing. so far anyway.
speaking of the bronx, this is anecdotal, but i chatted with an mta guy in ye olde local pub after work yesterday and he said the four new bx mnrr stations that are part of the penn station access plan are definitely on and moving forward and they are all enthusiastic. that was great to hear. he is working on that project. i asked about second avenue phase two and he had no insight there, not his team.
