Well, apparently you’re not an owner of a car or a business on Kings Highway. Myself as a owner of a car that frequents Kings Highway stores will opt for Ave M/J if parking is terminated. Many like me will do the same which in turn will result in loss of business. #SayNoToB82SBS

Well, apparently you never took tue B82. The fact is that very little parking will be removed and some new will be created. In return, 27 thousand passengers who are now suffering in an awful bus will see their issues tackled by SBS. #SayYesToB82SBS

There will be ZERO parking in the business district of Kings Highway. Where exactly r they going to create new parking- gonna build an in-air suspended parking lot? And th fact that 27k passengers will benefit doesn’t help the people LIVING HERE in the community! #SayNoToB82SBS

Many of the 27K LIVE IN THIS COMMUNITY! Side-streets, at former bus stops and along new medians. Plus not every block will get a bus lane. So there will still be plenty of parking on Kings Highway. Please don't just listen to pols, look at the facts http://www.nyc.gov/html/brt/downloads/pdf/brt-south-brooklyn-b82-mar2018.pdf …

Only ONE side street (that will add max 15 spots) is even a possibility. Adding parking by removing ONE bus stop on E9 won’t make a dent to the 50+ spots that will be lost from Ocean Parkway - Coney Island. Conclusion: remove approx 140 spots, add 50 new = 90 lost! #SayNoToB82SBS

These times are heave shopping hrs as well. The average store on Kings Highway closes by 7/8. People that normally go shopping after finishing work at 6 would have a difficult time w/parking and would opt for shopping elsewhere, where parking is available. #SayNoToB82SBS

Maybe they will opt for parking their cars and walking to do their shopping. That's a win for traffic and overall health.
