The **Bx27** constitutes a bus route in the Bronx, New York running primarily on Soundview Avenue, Rosedale Avenue, and Westchester Avenue, between Soundview or Clason Point during late nights and Longwood or Hunts Point.

The Bx27 was originally the Sound View Avenue Line streetcar, which was replaced with buses in 1947. Since then, the Bx27 had modifications to its route over the years.

## Route description

The Bx27 begins at Soundview Ferry Terminal or Soundview Avenue and Pugsley Avenue during evening and late nights, and uses Soundview Avenue, White Plains Road, Soundview Avenue again, and Randall Avenue to access Rosedale Avenue. It then continues on Rosedale Avenue for a length, except for a interruption where southbound buses use Soundview Avenue and Lafayette Avenue. It then continues on Rosedale Avenue until it turns to Watson Avenue, and buses accessing the Longwood terminus use Metcalf Avenue and Westchester Avenue to access the terminus, while southbound buses use Morrison Avenue to access Watson Avenue.

Buses heading to Hunts Point use Metcalf Avenue to access Westchester Avenue, while southbound buses use Morrison Avenue to access Watson Avenue. It then continues on Westchester Avenue until it uses 167th Street and West Farms Road to access the terminus, while buses heading southbound use Hoe Avenue to access Westchester Avenue.

## History

Buses replaced Sound View Avenue Line streetcars on March 8, 1947. The original south-western terminus was at Westchester Avenue-Fox Street (near Simpson Street on the IRT White Plains Road Line). Service was cut back to its current terminus in July 1974.

On August 15, 2018, the Bx27 was partially extended to serve the Soundview Ferry Terminal all times except nights. This extended service runs every 15–30 minutes.
Q89 (New York City bus 1986–2010)

The second version of the **Q89** consitituted a bus route in Queens, New York that ran primarily on Lincoln Street, Linden Boulevard, and Merrick Boulevard between South Ozone Park and 165th Street Bus Terminal in Jamaica, Queens. Formerly operated by Green Bus Lines under the designation Q9A, it was taken over by MTA Bus Company, and was discontinued on June 27, 2010.

## Route description and service

The bus began at Rockaway Boulevard and Lincoln Street, and goes on Lincoln Street unti it turned to Linden Boulevard. It then continued on the boulevard until it turned to Merrick Boulevard, and went on it until it turned to 89th Avenue, and headed to the 165th Street Bus Terminal, where it ended. For buses heading to South Ozone Park, they turned to Merrick Boulevard.

It operated one trip per hour in each direction between 10 am and 5 pm weekdays, and was the only bus route not to serve any rail or subway stations along its route.

## History

The new route was proposed in March 1986 to serve the newly opened South Jamaica Multi-Service Center. Service was initially planned to operate from Mondays through Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.. The New York City Board of Estimate was scheduled to vote on the proposed route in April 1986. Service was to be operated between 132nd Place and Rockaway Boulevard to 168th Street and Archer Avenue, running via Rockaway Boulevard, Lincoln Street, Linden Boulevard, Merrick Boulevard and Archer Avenue.

Service on the route was scheduled to begin around May 1, 1986, as soon as signs designated the route's stops were installed along the route by the Department of Traffic. Service on the route started after an agreement was reached between Green Bus Lines, the city's Bureau of Franchises and Community Board 12. The Board had sought the creation of the new bus route to help riders traveling between St. Albans or Cambria Heights and South Ozone Park. The Q9A began service operating on weekdays only between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m.. Unlike the initial proposal, service began at Lincoln Street and Rockaway Boulevard. In both plans, service made no stops between the turn onto Merrick Boulevard and the terminal. It was extended to 165th Street Bus Terminal on October 30, 1989.

### MTA takeover and discontinuation

On January 9, 2006, the MTA Bus Company took over the operations of the Green Lines routes, part of the city's takeover of all the remaining privately operated bus routes. Under the MTA in April 7, 2008, the Q9A was renumbered the Q89.

The route was discontinued on June 27, 2010 due to a budget crisis.
B75 (New York City bus)

The **Smith Street Line** was a public transit line in Brooklyn, New York City, running mostly along Ninth Street and Smith Street between Park Slope and Downtown Brooklyn. Originally a streetcar line, and later the **B75**, it is now split between two bus routes: the B57 (Cobble Hill section) and the B61 (Park Slope section). The B67, which supplemented service in Downtown Brooklyn along Jay Street before the elimination of the B75, continues to serve that section of the route. The B61 and B67 are operated by MTA New York City Bus' Jackie Gleason Depot in Sunset Park, and the B57 is dispatched from the Grand Avenue Depot in Maspeth, Queens.

## History

The entire line, along Prospect Park West, 9th Street, and Smith Street from the 9th Avenue Depot to downtown Brooklyn and through to Fulton Ferry, was opened in June 1862 by the Coney Island and Brooklyn Railroad. The Coney Island and Brooklyn Railroad acquired the line at some point, and by 1897 it was through-routed with the Coney Island Avenue Line (leaving the line to the 9th Avenue Depot at Prospect Park Southwest). Buses were substituted for streetcars on February 11, 1951, and on May 1, 1954 when Smith Street was converted to a one-way street, southbound traffic was moved from Smith Street to Court Street, which was also converted to a one-way street. It therefore replaced the B66 route, or the Court Street Line (which had been part of the Myrtle Avenue Line).

In 2010, because of budget cuts, the B75 was eliminated. The neighboring B77, which ran from Red Hook to 5th Avenue via 9th Street, was also eliminated. The Cobble Hill Section (Court and Smith Streets) was replaced by an extended B57, while the Park Slope (9th Street) section was replaced by an extended B61, which also absorbed the B77, providing a one-seat ride from Park Slope to Red Hook, and the Columbia Street Waterfront. The B67 continues to serve the Downtown Brooklyn section to Jay Street and Sands Street.
New York City Omnibus Corporation

The **New York City Omnibus Corporation** (NYCO, later **Fifth Avenue Coach Lines, Inc.**) ran bus services in New York City between 1926 and 1962. It expanded in 1935/36 with new bus routes to replace the New York Railways Corporation streetcars when these were dismantled. It further expanded with the acquisition of the Fifth Avenue Coach Company from The Omnibus Corporation in 1954. NYCO was renamed the "Fifth Avenue Coach Lines, Inc." in 1956, becoming bankrupt in 1962, after which operations were taken over by the Manhattan and Bronx Surface Transit Operating Authority.

## History

The New York City Omnibus Corporation was formed in 1926 with John A. Ritchie as President. Richie was also president of The Omnibus Corporation founded a year earlier.

The company introduced new bus lines to replace the streetcar lines being withdrawn by the New York Railways Corporation in 1935/36, which The Omnibus Corporation also owned.

In 1954, the company purchased the Fifth Avenue Coach Company from The Omnibus Corporation and renamed itself as "Fifth Avenue Coach Lines, Inc." on May 14, 1956. They also acquired the Third Avenue Railway-owned Surface Transportation Corporation on December 17 that same year, and created an operating subsidiary, Surface Transit, Inc., to administer their routes.

The company went bankrupt in 1962 and the services were taken over by the Manhattan and Bronx Surface Transit Operating Authority.

Q76 (New York City bus)

The **Q76** constitutes a bus route in Queens, New York, running primarily on Hillside Avenue, Francis Lewis Boulevard, and 20th Avenue between the 165th Street Bus Terminal in Jamaica, Queens and College Point.

## Route description and service

The Q76 begins at the 165th Street Bus Terminal, and uses 165th Street to access Hillside Avenue, while buses heading to the terminal use Merrick Boulevard and 89th Avenue. It then continues on Hillside Avenue until it turns to Francis Lewis Boulevard.

It then continues until it uses 131st Street, 15th Avenue, and 132nd Street to access the terminus, while buses heading to Jamaica, Queens turn left on 20th Avenue.

## History

A Francis Lewis Boulevard bus route was proposed and rejected in 1959. The Q76 service started on October 29, 1961 as a six-month trial, running between Parsons Boulevard and 14th Avenue in Whitestone and the 179th Street station on Hillside Avenue. Service initially ran on 20-minute headways between 5:30 a.m. and 12:30 a.m.

On December 27, 1961, the NYCTA announced that it planned to apply to the Board of Estimate for permission to switch the travel path of the route for the second half of the trial the following month. Service was rerouted from running via the Long Island Expressway service road and 188th Street to get to Jamaica to staying on Francis Lewis Boulevard to Hillside Avenue. The shift was done so that data for revenue for the new route could be compared with revenue for the existing route.

It was extended from 179th Street-Hillside Avenue to 165th Street Terminal in 1989.

Overnight service was eliminated on September 10, 1995 due to a budget crisis.

It was extended to College Point from Whitestone on September 11, 2000.

Saturday service eliminated on June 27, 2010 due to another budget crisis, but restored on September 8, 2012 along with new Sunday service.

In December 2019, the MTA released a draft redesign of the Queens bus network. As part of the redesign, the Q76 bus would have been replaced by the QT64, a "neighborhood" route running between Jamaica and College Point, the QT73, also a "neighborhood" route running between Flushing and Laurelton, and the QT84, a "neighborhood" route running between Flushing and Bayside. The redesign was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City in 2020, and the original draft plan was dropped due to negative feedback. A revised plan was released in March 2022. As part of the new plan, the Q76 will be rerouted via 20th Avenue and Willets Point Boulevard, instead of using Cross Island Parkway Service Road, 14th Avenue, and Parsons Boulevard.
S55 (New York City bus)

The **S55** constitues a bus route in Staten Island, running from New Springville to Rossville, Staten Island. It only runs on weekdays only.

## History

The bus route was formerly designated as the R115, which was a bus route loop at Princes Bay, Rossville, an Arden Heights.

It was then renumbered the S115, and on September 13, 1987, the route was split into S55 (clockwise) and S56 (counter-clockwise), as a loop service with layover at Tottenville High School. Service on Seguine Avenue between Hylan Boulevard and Johnson Terrace at Purdy Place was then discontinued.

## History

The MTA started planning for a far west side service in 2013, in conjunction with the 7 train's extension to 34 Street - Hudson Yards. It originally was planned to go from 59th Street to Spring Street, via the West Side Highway until 14th Street, and Washington/Greenwich Streets south of there. It was also scheduled to only run every 30 minutes. After numerous complaints by the community boards in the area, the route was redrawn in 2014. This routing was revised one more time to its current state, and the intervals changed to 20 minutes before the start of service on August 31, 2014.

## Equipment

The M12 operates out of Michael J. Quill Depot, using OBI Orion VII OG HEV 07.501, OBI Orion VII NG HEV 07.501, and New Flyer XD40 Xcelsior buses. Prior to 2019, the route operated Nova Bus RTS-06 buses, but these were replaced by the New Flyer XD40 Xcelsiors.

The Queens Transit Corporation began operating the route in 1970. In 1988, Queens Transit Corporation and Steinway Transit Corporation were merged together to form Queens Surface Corporation.

In 1988, Queens Surface Corporation discontinued the QM3 after the City of New York pulled its funding for the service. Caravan Bus Systems Incorporated picked up the route due to equipment shortages and budget cuts with the approval of the NYCDOT. Caravan Bus Systems Inc. ran the QM3 as the QM28 with no subsidy from NYC and returned the lines to Queens Surface Corporation in 1990, after protest from Queens elected officials who were afraid that Caravan Bus Systems Incorporated would discontinue the routes after Caravan Bus Systems Incorporated lost money on the routes and was refused the city subsidy that these routes got under Queens/Steinway Transit Corp. prior to Queens Surface taking over the routes on July 1, 1988.

On February 27, 2005, the MTA Bus Company took over the operations of the Queens Surface routes, including the QM3, part of the city's takeover of all the remaining privately operated bus routes.

Queens-bound service was rerouted to 59th Street in August 2015.

In December 2019, the MTA released a draft redesign of the Queens bus network. As part of the redesign, the express route would be eliminated. The redesign was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, and the original draft plan was dropped due to negative feedback. A revised plan was released in March 2022. Under the new plan, the same plan above was kept.
Gun Hill Depot

The **Gun Hill Depot** is a Bronx Division bus depot located at 1910 Bartow Avenue near Gun Hill Road (40.866414°N 73.833071°W), west of the New England Thruway (Interstate 95) in the Baychester neighborhood of the Bronx near the Co-Op City, which a number of its routes serve.

The site was formerly a garbage and toxic waste dump, used at various times for both legal and illegal waste disposal. It was selected by the MTA for a new garage in 1979 to replace the original West Farms Depot It opened on September 10, 1989, also temporarily replacing the old Kingsbridge Depot, which closed on the same day for reconstruction. The depot also contains heavy maintenance facilities and served the Bronx's central maintenance facility upon its opening.

In 1992, the MTA built little league baseball fields on an adjacent site one block west. The MTA also owned the lot immediately south of the depot until 2014, which was leased and used as a driving range from 1999 to 2010. This land was originally planned for an expansion of the depot, or a new central rebuild facility. In June 1996, solar panels were installed on the roof of the depot. It was the first NYCTA depot to use solar energy, which now provide about 40% of the depot's power. It is also the only New York City Transit bus garage that was built on previously undeveloped land.

Weekend service was originally discontinued in June 2010, and was later restored in January 2013.

As part of the MTA's 2017 Fast Forward Plan to speed up mass transit service, a draft plan for a reorganization of Bronx bus routes was proposed in draft format in June 2019, with a final version published in October 2019. The plan included rerouting service south to Fordham Plaza from Bainbridge Avenue and 204th Street via 204th Street and Webster Avenue. The rerouted Bx28 will cover the deleted portion on Bainbridge and Valentine Avenue. This change was proposed to be implemented by mid-2020.

In 1989, a methanol fuel station was installed at the facility for six General Motors-built RTS methanol buses. It was later used in the early 1990s to fuel an NYCT demonstration bus from the Casey Stengel Depot and three new Triboro-operated RTS buses fitted with special Detroit Diesel Series 92 engines. Beginning in 1994, the facility dispatched compressed natural gas (CNG) buses in addition to its diesel fleet. The depot was decommissioned from CNG operations in 2006 due to not meeting the MTA's safety and environmental standards. On April 10, 2006, while workers from KeySpan were removing CNG from tanks and a private contractor was conducting construction near the depot, a gas compressor station exploded leading to a large fire at the depot. One bus was destroyed and 12 were damaged. Work to modify this depot to accommodate articulated buses was completed in the 2010s, with the Q53 converted to articulated buses as of January 2017, and the Q70 being converted to articulated buses in June 2020.

Kings Coach Company

**Kings Coach Company** was a bus operator in the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens in New York City. It operated the B2, B3, and B31 bus routes, later taken over by the BMT, and the Q29 bus route before it was taken over by Triboro Coach Corporation.

## History

In 1921, it began the Q29 bus route in Queens, and in 1922, it began the B2 and B3 buses. On October 20, 1936, the Q29 was taken over by Triboro Coach Corporation, while in an unknown year, the B2 and B3 buses were taken over by the Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit Corporation (BMT).
Jamaica Depot

The **Jamaica Depot** is a Queens Division bus depot located on the west side of Merrick Boulevard just south of Liberty Avenue in Jamaica, Queens (40.700689°N 73.790663°W). The depot lies between Merrick Boulevard to the east and 165th Street to the west, and spans about three blocks north-to-south between Tuskegee Airman Way (South Road) and 107th Avenue, located across from the campus of York College. The depot was opened by the North Shore Bus Company in August 1940 and inherited by the Board of Transportation in 1947. An addition was constructed in 1950, adding additional storage and a bus washing area. The depot was expanded again in 1968, and from 1993 to 1994.

The 58,000 square foot depot is the oldest existing New York City Transit Depot. It holds 150 buses at capacity, but is assigned 208 buses, many of which are parked on the surrounding streets. Due to its age and capacity issues and to accommodate articulated buses, the MTA plans to demolish the existing structure and build a new and expanded depot on the same site, as well as on 50,000 square feet of adjacent property purchased in April 2014. At this time, construction was anticipated to begin in 2018, with all of its buses, and local routes temporarily sent to other depots. In December 2021, the MTA announced a redevelopment project for the Jamaica Depot, to be completed by 2026. As part of the project, the depot would be modified to support up to 60 electric-powered buses.

S67 (New York City bus)

The **S67** constituted a bus route in Staten Island, New York, that ran between St. George Ferry Terminal and Port Richmond, running primarily on Victory Boulevard, Watchogue Road, Willowbrook Road, and Decker Avenue.

The S67 was originally the R106 route, which started service in 1938. It was then renumbered to S106, and then the entire route was renumbered the S67 in 1990. It was then discontinued in 2010 due to a budget crisis, and the S57 was extended in its place.

## Route description

The S67 began at St. George Ferry Terminal, and continued along Bay Street until it turned to Victory Boulevard. It then continued on Victory Boulevard until it headed to Watchogue Road, while southbound buses used Bradley Avenue to access Victory Boulevard. It then continued on Watchogue Road until it turned to Willowbrook Road. It then went on most of the road, and then turned to Forest Avenue, and then Deeker Avenue. It then continued along the avenue until it turned to Post Avenue and then Port Richmond Avenue, and continued on Port Richmond Avenue until it turned to Richmond Terrace and then Park Avenue to access the terminus, while southbound buses used Church Street to access Port Richmond Avenue.

## History

The S67 was originally the R106, which ran between Castleton Corners and Port Richmond, or to St. George Ferry Terminal Ramp "A" during rush hours. This route was started in 1938. The R106 would be merged into the R111, and the segment north of Victory Boulevard became an extended R111. It would re-numbered S111/106 service between Port Richmond and Eltingville, and have some rush hour ferry service. The entire route would be renumbered again to the S67 in 1990.

On June 27, 2010, because of a budget crisis, the S67 was eliminated. It would then be replicated by the S57.
B37 (New York City bus)

The **Third Avenue Line** is a public transit line in Brooklyn and Queens, New York City, running mostly along Third Avenue, between Fort Hamilton and Boerum Hill. Originally a streetcar line, it is now the B37 bus route, operated by the New York City Transit Authority.

## Description

The bus route begins at 4th Avenue and Shore Road, then it turns right onto Third Avenue. It then continues on the street for most of its length. At Atlantic Avenue, it turns right, and then left onto 4th Avenue, and it terminates near the entrance to the Atlantic Avenue-Barclays Center station.

When it heads to Fort Hamilton, it turns right onto Bergen Street, and then left onto Third Avenue. After continuing on the avenue for most of its length, it turns left on Marine Avenue, and right on 4th Avenue, and finally right again on Shore Road, where it terminates.

## History

### Streetcar service

The Third Avenue (then known as Powers Street) horsecar service started in 1868 from Fulton Ferry to Wyckoff Street, running on Livingston Street and Third Avenue. In 1872, the line was extended down Third Avenue to 24th Street, and over to Greenwood Cemetery. When the line was electrified on November 7, 1892, it was feasible to continue it all the way to Fort Hamilton. The streetcar was operated by the Brooklyn City Railroad.

### Bus service

The streetcar ran until March 1, 1942 when it was substituted for buses.

In January 1995, the B37 began running via Livingston Street in Downtown Brooklyn instead of via the Fulton Mall due to the high accident rate on that street and due to the difficult turns required to get to Fulton Mall.

On November 8, 2008, Bay Ridge-bound service was rerouted from Third Avenue to Fourth Avenue between Flatbush Avenue and Bergen Street.

The B37 bus was discontinued on June 27, 2010 due to a budget crisis. As a result, the B70 bus was rerouted from 7th Avenue to 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge in July 2010 to replace B37 service.

It was restored on June 29, 2014, and B70 buses via Third Avenue were moved back to Seventh Avenue. However, the route between Court Street and Livingston Street in Downtown Brooklyn (original northern terminus) and Atlantic Avenue-Barclays Center was not restored. Subsequently, the B37 bus now terminates near the Atlantic Avenue-Barclays Center station.

On December 1, 2022, the MTA released a draft redesign of the Brooklyn bus network. As part of the plan, the B37 will not be modified, except for the elimination of closely spaced bus stops.
B33 (New York City bus)

The **B33** was a public transit line in Brooklyn, New York City, running mostly along Hamilton Avenue between Bay Ridgeand Hamilton Ferry at the north end of the avenue in Red Hook. Originally a streetcar line known as the Hamilton Avenue Line, it was replaced by a bus route, but is no longer operated.

## Route description

The westbound terminal of the route was at Van Brunt Street and Hamilton Avenue. Service continued east along Hamilton Avenue over the Gowanus Canal before merging onto 17th Street and then turning north onto 6th Avenue. After a block, service turned right onto Prospect Avenue. Service continued along Prospect Avenue until Greenwood Avenue. Buses turned east onto that street and made a right at Prospect Park Southwest, before heading east along Parkside Avenue. Service then headed north along Ocean Avenue until it reached the terminal at Empire Boulevard. Westbound service then turned south onto Flatbush Avenue and west along Lincoln Road to return to Ocean Avenue. Westbound service followed the route of eastbound service along Parkside Avenue, Prospect Park Southwest and Greenwood Avenue. Buses then turned right onto Prospect Avenue before merging into Hamilton Avenue, continuing until the terminal at Van Brunt Street.

## History

The route on Hamilton Avenue was not one of the original franchisesgranted to the Brooklyn City Rail Road in 1853, but was added soon after. The portion south of Court Street, which was one of the original routes, opened on September 4, 1854 as part of the Court Street Line to Green-Wood Cemetery, and the rest opened in early June 1855, at first operated as a shuttle between the ferry and Court Street.

Eventually the route was operated along Third Avenue south to the 65th Street Depot in Bay Ridge as the 33 Hamilton line. The 33 designation was kept when the route changed and instead ran southeast from the end of Hamilton Avenue along Prospect Avenue to Prospect Park, and around the south side of the park on a route once followed by the Franklin Avenue Line and Lorimer Street Line, ending east of the park at Prospect Lefferts Gardens, near the then-Ebbets Field. Ridership dropped in 1942 with the discontinuation of the Hamilton Avenue Ferry, and in 1957 with the Brooklyn Dodgers, who played at Ebbets Field, moved to Los Angeles.

The route was discontinued on March 29, 1992 as part of a systemwide cuts in bus service due to low ridership. Discontinuing the route, which was used by about 100 daily riders, was estimated to save the New York City Transit Authority $73,000 annually. At the time of its discontinuance, its service had been reduced to rush hours only, with service only running every 40 minutes between 7 and 9 a.m., and from 3 to 5 p.m..
Flatbush Depot

The **Flatbush Depot** is a Brooklyn Division bus depot located at 4901 Filmore Avenue in Flatlands, Brooklyn (40.615736°N 73.927059°W), near the Kings Plaza shopping center, where a number of bus routes terminate. The depot occupies two blocks just off Flatbush Avenue, bounded by Fillmore Avenue, East 49th Street, Avenue N, and Utica Avenue.

The Brooklyn Heights Railroad (part of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company) opened the depot in mid-1902 along its Flatbush Avenue Line (later the Bergen Beach Shuttle) on Avenue N. It eventually served a number of lines from the Flatbush area, including the Bergen Beach Shuttle, Flatbush Avenue Line, Nostrand Avenue Line, Ocean Avenue Line, and Utica Avenue Line. The barn began serving buses in 1931, and was acquired by the city in 1940. The depot was reconstructed under municipal operations in the late 1940s,designed by architect D. R. Collin of the BRT, and was intended to be the first of a new system-wide design. Few of the former BRT/BMT depots were rebuilt to match such designs. Only Ulmer Park Depot's garage building somewhat matches his new architectural design. The new Flatbush Depot opened for bus service on January 15, 1950, along with Ulmer Park Depot. An adjacent parking lot was added in 1965, and the depot was rehabilitated in 1991. In 2009, the depot became the first to dispatch buses equipped with Plexiglas partitions to protect drivers, after the December 1, 2008 murder of Edwin Thomas, a bus driver who was operating a bus on the B46 Limited route when this incident occurred.

Q84 (New York City bus)

### **Start**

Jamaica – Parsons Boulevard and Archer Avenue / Jamaica Center–Parsons/Archer station

### **End**

Laurelton – 238th Street and 130th Avenue

### **Length**

TBA

The **Q84** constitutes a bus route in Queens, New York running primarily on Merrick Boulevard and 120th Avenue, between Jamaica, Queens and Laruelton. Originally operated by Bee-Line Bus, then North Shore Bus Company, it is now operated by New York City Transit under the MTA Regional Bus Operations brand.

## Route description

The Q84 begins at Parsons Avenue and Archer Avenue, near the Jamaica Center-Parsons/Archer station on the Archer Avenue lines, and continues on Archer Avenue until it turns to Merrick Boulevard, while buses heading to the terminus use 168th Street to access Archer Avenue. It then continues on Merrick Boulevard until it turns to 120th Avenue. It then goes on the avenue for most of its length, until it uses 238th Street and 129th Avenue to access the terminus, while westbound buses use 237th Street to access 120th Avenue.

## History

The Q84 was originally operated by Bee Line Bus, and service began in 1923, as the Q4A.

On February 18, 1962, it was extended from 122nd Avenue and 199th Street to its present terminus at 238th Street and 130th Avenue during a six-month test period.

The original western terminus was the 169th Street subway station. Service was rerouted to Jamaica Center on December 11, 1988, and was renumbered from the Q4A to the Q84.

On August 29, 1993, two-way traffic on Archer Avenue and Jamaica Avenue was restored between 138th Street and 168th Street, undoing changes that took effect in November 1990. The change was made to alleviate heavy traffic on Jamaica Avenue. Q84 service began running on Archer Avenue in both directions. Outbound trips had run on Jamaica Avenue between Parsons Boulevard and Merrick Boulevard.

In December 2019, the MTA released a draft redesign of the Queens bus network. As part of the redesign, the Q84 bus would have been replaced by the QT41, a "suwbay connector" route running between Jamaica and Cambria Heights, and will have limited stops between Jamaica and Merrick Boulevard/188th Street; local service was expected to be provided by the QT18, and the QT73, a "neighborhood" route running between Flushing and Laurelton. The redesign was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City in 2020, and the original draft plan was dropped due to negative feedback. A revised plan was released in March 2022. As part of the new plan, the Q84 will use Liberty Avenue and 160th Street instead of Archer Avenue and 168th Street, and local service on Merrick Boulevard will be provided by the Q25.
M18 (New York City bus)

The **M18** constituted a public transit line in Manhattan, New York that ran primarily on Convent Avenue and 116th Street, between Washington Heights and Harlem.

The M18 was originally the Convent Avenue branch of the M3 bus route. It would be discontinued in 1987 for the reconstruction of a water tunnel under the street. The buses were rerouted via St. Nicholas Avenue. The M18 was created in 1993 as a response from community leaders, restoring service on the Convent Avenue corridor. It would then be discontinued on June 27, 2010 due to a budget crisis.

## Route description and service

The M18 began at 168th Street and Audubon Avenue, and used Broadway and 166th Street to access Saint Nicholas Avenue, while buses heading to the terminal used Audubon Avenue. It then continued along Saint Nicholas Avenue until it turned to Convent Avenue, while buses heading to Washington Heights used 150th Street to access Saint Nicholas Avenue. It then continued on Convent Avenue until it went on Morningside Avenue, and then turned to 124th Street, Manhattan Avenue, and 116th Street, while northbound buses used Frederick Douglas Boulevard, St. Nicholas Avenue, 125th Street/Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, Amsterdam Avenue, and 129th Street to access Convent Avenue. It then continued on 116th Street until it turned to Lenox Avenue/Malcolm X Boulevard and then Central Park North, and continued on that street until it ended at Fifth Avenue.

The route ran all times except late nights.

## History

The M18 was originally was the former Convent Avenue branch of the M3. Service on the branch was discontinued in 1987 for the reconstruction of a water tunnel under the street. The buses were rerouted via St. Nicholas Avenue. During the six-year long project, the NYCTA attempted to eliminate bus service. The agency would have eliminated the bus shelters if not for the pleas from community leaders. The M18 was created in 1993, restoring service to the Convent Avenue corridor. Due to a budget crisis, the route was slated to be discontinued in June 1995, saving the Transit Authority $450,000 annually. Instead of being completely discontinued, the route was truncated to Harlem on September 10, 1995.

On June 27, 2010, because of another budget crisis, the M18 was eliminated.
