Keeping with the Queens bus studies theme, this link is to a 144-page report authored by a student from my alma mater, Fordham University.
Although I do not know the author, his research project explored transit needs in Southeastern Queens, which is geographically not too far south of the area described in the MTA-issued report about Northeastern Queens, but which is sociologically and economically very different from its counterpart to the north.
Many folks living in Rosedale, Laurelton, Saint Albans and Springfield Gardens must rely on long trips on local buses to get to the subways located in the Jamaica CBD. Had MTA converted one of the 2 LIRR lines in that area to create the "Southeastern Queens Subway", the transit picture in that area likely would have been quite different than it is today.
