mark1447 Posted August 14, 2009 Share #2 Posted August 14, 2009 It turns at 149th since the NYCDOT is building a Plaza on Willies Ave as well as Melrose Ave, which melrose ave there was converted into one way only toward South Bronx(Or Downtown Bronx lol) And Willis Ave(Or third ave) too. So its being turned there. and going on 149th from GC to The hub. ALTHOUGH MaBSTOA could of runned the Bx2 with the new route of the Bx41/41LTD up to 152nd St and turn north and run back on 162nd/165th St like it did before. But I guess that would overcrowd 3rd Avenue with its Bx15 Local and Bx55LTD as well as Bx41 Local/Limited buses. Heres a map of the new route, if u didnt see in my old post: http://www.nyctransitforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11848 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EE Broadway Local Posted August 18, 2009 Share #3 Posted August 18, 2009 East 149th Street, Third Avenue, Melrose Avenue, Courtland Avenue is The Hub. Never did like South Bronx - like Mott Haven, Morrisania, Highbridge better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
