New MTA Trip Planner Site Actually Sort of Seems To Work
We've been playing around with the MTA's new Trip Planner, which not only provides routes when you enter starting point and destination info, but also gives estimated bus and subway arrival times, and so far . . . we hesitate to jinx this . . . it seems like it might be kind of awesome and actually useful, unlike anything else the MTA has ever done in its entire life. Unfortunately, we're far from our usual Greenpoint Avenue G proximate-haunts and are unable to test out the new system, so we were hoping you'd give it a whirl and let us know: does the subway actually come when they say it will? Or has the MTA duped us yet again? Let us know.
Update: It totally doesn't work, hopstop is better, and we're idiots for ever thinking that it could work.
