""Unfortunately, as the mayor of New York City, I must deliver fast and reliable buses for Yankees fans as well. I can think of no better way to welcome the start of baseball season than by breaking ground on a project that will make commutes faster, streets safer and daily life a little easier for tens of thousands of New Yorkers every day.""
""The upcoming work, which will run through 2028, actually attempts to deliver on the original SBS concept as the city's version of bus rapid transit.""
The city is launching a significant overhaul of 161st Street to enhance bus service for Bronx residents. This project includes a protected center-running bus lane and bus-only traffic in the 161st Street tunnel. Additional features will include bus boarding islands, sidewalk extensions, and new trees for pedestrian safety. The initiative aims to make commutes faster and improve daily life for thousands of New Yorkers. Construction is expected to be completed by 2028, fulfilling the original concept of Select Bus Service introduced in 2017.
