Re: Driven By.... Uhh... Hello? Anybody?
Does the 116/117 even run beyond 12:30? All the ridership numbers are from 12:30-3am (prior to being slashed back), so I bet a lot of the evening peak wouldn't be included with the data reference. Out of curiosity, I assume you're talking about outbounds, what does the late (but not "late-night") inbounds look like? The 116/117 retains a decent amount of its ridership (~55%; avg. sat/sun compared to normal weekday) which put its it line with routes like the 70, 57, 77, 28, 1, and 66 - but that's only a part of picture.
About 225 per wknd take the late-night 111 and Aquarium sees about 600 entries per wknd. Obviously not all of the entries are headed to Chelsea/Eastie, but 100 people heading home that late isn't a small number for sure.
^ Where did the 116/117 rank? Combined do they equal over 300 a weekend? Curious because this is not a "drunk bus" corridor, but a crucial blue collar worker corridor. Often, the 116/117 late at night (around 11) looks like just like the evening peak.
Thank you for crunching these numbers btw.
