The guy who made it had many mistakes for Suffolk. I helped him correct some, though I don't know if he fixed the other. |

| One thing off the bat I noticed was the lack of the S110. What did you notice? |

The buses running through SUNY Stony Brook were wrong at first, as well as the the stops for the S40 and S66 in Patchouge. He also had the 7D wrong at first.
He also had some routes wrong at Smith Haven Mall
He also had the routes in Riverhead wrong, I told him how to right them but right them but I didn't look to see if he corrected them.
Everything else was correct to my knowlege, though I hadn't checked for the S110. |

| If I read the disclaimer right, it mentions any route with less than 3 round trips or seasonal isn't listed, which includes the S110. It also mentioned they aren't affiliated with any of the transit agencies, so I'll cut it some slack. The Smith Haven Mall area is being put under further review at the moment and the Stony Brook area looks ship shape now. Furthermore while it needs work, it's currently it's better than what google has up. |

Yeah the guy fixed the SUNY Stony Brook routes after I pointed it out.
Google doesn't give any bus routes for Suffolk.
Also he messed up the S60 near Coram, though I don't recall if I pointed that out to him at the time. |

The S60 looks right to me at least in Coram.
I know Google gives no routes for SCT, sarcasm was the name of the game there, however it doesn't seem to travel well on here. The funny thing about Google is there is something called Street View and when it that along main route you can clearly see the signs for SCT routes. Oh well SMH moment there. |

The guy has the S60 using Middle Country to CR 83 to get to Old Town Road, which of course it doesn't do. I was off, thats the border area for Selden and Coram |

Ah that's what got me, and I see what you you put down. Is it correct that the S63 is the only bus on 25 east of Nichols road until Boyle Road? |

Thanks for the nod to the site everyone.
S-60, I remember you saying that changes in Riverhead were needed, but the details aren't in the same place you suggested the other changes. Can you send them to fatguy1@mindspring.com please?
The S60 is no longer routed via CR83 on my local copy of the map, and it will be corrected on the public version once I finish going through Monday's NICE changes.
Otherwise, the site is still very new, and it will likely take a while to shake out all the bugs. Keep right on pointing out the glitches--just about all of these were done late at night or well before my coffee kicked in, so I'm not going to take it personally.
Thanks!

The S60 was never routed Via CR 83 or at least it hasn't as long as I can remember. Unless it was routed that way before the late 90's or as a detour.
The Riverhead routes or confusing. I'll send you an e-mail. |

Doug,
Any way you get it done is fine, it's nice to have one map to look at from the Nassau/Queens border to the Forks to better gauge any trip I need to take. If there's any suggestion I'll make is that when we get closer to June you could put up the Summer/Sunday lines in Nassau/Suffolk. Keep up the good work! |
