Description:Improvements in mass transportation systems, particularly bus service, could even out the current overuse and underuse of beaches in the New York City coastal region. This survey of users of Coney Island, Orchard Beach, Riis Park, Great Kills, and Jones Beach showed that easy access can encourage people to use a beach they had considered undesirable. The survey, administered in the summer of l977, questioned beach users on their transportation mode, the cost of such transportation, their socioeconomic status, perception of the physical environment, and other concerns affecting beach use.
