Transit vultures are already circling to scrounge the spoils of the MTA’s aborted L train shutdown plan.

Days after a leaked memo revealed that the agency could scrap a new Brooklyn-Manhattan bus route, Congressman Max Rose (D-SI/Brooklyn) and Staten Island Borough President James Oddo urged NYC Transit boss Andrew Byford to reassign its brand-new buses to Staten Island’s fleet.

The MTA spent $150 million in 2017 to buy 180 articulated buses earmarked for an interborough shuttle along Manhattan’s 14th Street. The route would have replaced L train service during the 15-month total shutdown the agency had planned to renovate the decrepit Canarsie Tunnel.

The new wheels began arriving in November, with deliveries scheduled through March.

But Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s switch to a partial-shutdown strategy left the vehicles in mothballs, Rose and Oddo said.

“If these buses are brought to Staten Island instead, they can … make buses run more frequently, and stop the plague of no-show buses” that rankle the borough’s 95,000 daily riders, they wrote in a letter to Byford Jan. 28.

But with alternate L-train service plans still in flux ahead of the project’s April start date, the bipartisan scavenger ploy is premature, the MTA said.

“We appreciate Congressman Rose’s and Borough President Oddo’s advocacy for their constituents,” agency spokesman Shams Tarek said.

“We’re just asking, where are the buses?” Rose told The Post. “Staten Islanders face a commuting nightmare each and every day. These new buses would make a hell of a difference. So all we’re asking is for the MTA to show Staten Island some love.”
