The upcoming bus network redesign in Queens, set to launch on June 29, aims to enhance the speed and reliability of public transportation for its 800,000 daily riders. This overhaul, which took five years to develop with community feedback, will be executed in two phases. Phase 1 introduces 16 new routes and modifies 67 current ones, while Phase 2 begins on August 31 with one new and 37 altered routes. The redesign will include new signage and better connectivity to Long Island Rail Road and subway stations, supported by increased funding for services.
Demetrius Crichlow, the MTA's NYC Transit president, said all the route changes will be featured interactively on the agency's website at mta.info.
MTA Chair and CEO Janno Lieber said the agency is also investing $34 million a year more in service funding to help increase frequency and more direct connections.
