No, it really is. Name another single individual nyc subway project from the past 50 years that created a bigger expansion of available service. This is the biggest one, and by a massive amount
Well obviously the 2nd Ave Subway for starters.
Found the Manhattanite. You guys hate to admit anything important exists outside of Manhattan.
Dude not even close! The 2nd ave subway project added 3 new stops. The IBX is adding WAY more than that. And even if you wanna count the entire hypothetical second avenue line as a single project (which it obviously isn't because each "phase" of the entension is being done multiple decades apart at best), then the hypothetical entire line is still way less than the IBX.
Just those 3 new stops have double the ridership of the entire IBX. When SAS phase 2 is added, the difference will be more like 5x.
