Well, at least that's what the merchants along E. Fordham Road who have seen a downturn in business are saying...According to Daily News' Tanyanika Samuels, the usually jam-packed commercial strip is suffering due to the parking restrictions that have been put in place to accommodate the Select Bus Service which has replaced the Bx12 Limited.
Officials are saying that the new select service has shaved a whopping 5 minutes off commute times. BoogieDowner asks: Is 5 minutes really worth running the risk of businesses (who are already dealing with majorly depressing economic realities) closing up shop?
