Bx23 service changes

Recommended Posts

Bx23 now has 2 extra trips going 5-4-3-2-1 7 days a week

 

12:30am, 1:00am

 

 

Bx23/Q50 is actually getting better than the old QBx1 in most ways (with the exception of the later last weekday bus of the QBx1 and the earlier weekday first bus of the QBx1)

 

QBx1 evening 1-2-3-4-5 from Pelham Bay

9:00, 9:20, 9:45, 10:15, 10:45, 11:15, 11:45, 12:15, 12:40, 1:05, 1:35*

* - ran weekdays only (early Tuesday - early Saturday)

 

Bx23/Q50 evening 1-2-3-4-5 from Pelham Bay

8:55, 9:15, 9:25, 9:45, 10:15, 10:25, 10:45, 11:15, 11:25, 11:45, 12:25, 1:20

 

 

QBx1 evening 5-4-3-2-1 from Pelham Bay

9:10, 9:40, 10:10, 10:40, 11:10, 11:40, 12:10

 

Bx23 evening 5-4-3-2-1 from Pelham Bay

9:00, 9:30, 10:00, 10:30, 11:00, 11:30, 12:00, 12:30, 1:00

This is definitely great for Co-Op city residents.

A more cynical view is that the (MTA) is simply re-adding the late evening service they removed when the Bx23/Q50 were first split from the QBx1.

 

And now that Shortline Bus mentioned it, why doesn't the (MTA) add 24-hour service to the Bx23?

 

- It would finally give Co-Op City more than one bus line overnight (not counting the Bx12)

- Potential overtime for night owl bus operators

- The city foots the bill

 

Bx23 late night runs sounds good, at least on paper...

Gotta admit, the (Bx28) does need help overnights

 

Yeah but only to about 1AM. Then its all Bx28.. Its sad that there is no late night buses that will link Co-Op city to Pelham Bay.. The Bx12 doesn't run that late to Bay Plaza. (after 1 or 2am)
