Bronx To Get City’s First Rapid Transit Buses
The Bronx will be the first of the city’s boroughs to see MTA rapid transit buses.
Beginning this summer, the new express buses will run on the Bx12 route along Fordham Road and Pelham Parkway and will be known as the Bx12 Select Bus Service.
The buses will make the same stops as the Bx12 Limited-Stop service, but will run more frequently.
Other features include onboard sensors that can extend green lights, and a dedicated bus lane.
Fares will be the same as regular buses, but riders will pay before boarding and then show a receipt to the driver.
Similar rapid transit routes are scheduled to be implemented in all five boroughs.
