NICE Bus  
Ridership Along the Corridor Portions of Roosevelt Avenue have ridership, but usually just at subway stations where riders transfer from buses to the subway.
Land Use and Density This corridor has solid urbanism throughout, based on the important subway line overhead.
Road Conditions Buses running beneath the els are often slow due to the tight space constraints of the columns. Double parking and truck deliveries limit the ability to use this corridor for significant east-west bus travel.
