Borough Hall Loop via Fulton Ferry Landing to MTA Vent Building<br />
East Broadway<br />
!<br />
This route would consist of a one-way, counter-clockwise loop stopping at Fulton<br />
Ferry Chambers Landing, St the MTA vent building, Atlantic Avenue at Furman Street, Downtown<br />
!<br />
<strong>Brooklyn</strong>, and the High Street subway station (see Figure V-8). The route would primarily<br />
follow Cadman Plaza West, Old Fulton Street, Furman Street and Atlantic Avenue. It<br />
is recommended that a one-way loop be considered, as bi-directional loops may be<br />
cost-prohibitive. Unless they are short and efficient, one-way loops can be problematic<br />
because they only serve those traveling in one direction.<br />

Floating Pool at <strong>Brooklyn</strong> <strong>Bridge</strong> <strong>Park</strong> Beach Shuttle Demonstration<br />
The LDC contracted with a private operator to provide shuttle bus service to the Floating<br />
Pool at <strong>Brooklyn</strong> <strong>Bridge</strong> <strong>Park</strong> Beach from July 4 through September 3, 2007. The pool<br />
was located on the waterfront at Furman Street between Piers 4 and 5. Lessons learned<br />
from the shuttle operations provide useful information for potential future shuttle or<br />
transit operations serving the <strong>Park</strong>.<br />
The shuttle bus operator ran two shuttle buses following a counter-clockwise route<br />
serving the pool by way of <strong>Brooklyn</strong> Borough Hall and the High Street A,C subway<br />
station at Cadman Plaza West (see Figure V-7). The service initially operated from<br />
11 AM to 8 PM daily and was later extended from 9 AM to 8 PM, corresponding to<br />
the extended pool hours. Average shuttle headways were 14 minutes. Each shuttle<br />
stop was indicated by a standard New York City sidewalk bus stop sign (“Pool Shuttle<br />
– <strong>Brooklyn</strong> <strong>Bridge</strong> <strong>Park</strong> Beach”), and a large, colorful sign was placed on the side of each<br />
vehicle.<br />
