About the route

The proposed Q19 Local route runs westbound to Astoria and eastbound to Flushing. 

The proposed length of the Q19 Local route is 6.4 miles. 

In the existing route, the average stop spacing is 856 feet. Under the proposed route, that would increase to 1,056 feet. 

The route would include connections to the B62, Q14, Q17, Q18, Q20, Q23, Q25, Q26, Q27, Q33, Q44, Q47, Q49, Q50, Q62, Q63, Q65, Q66, Q69, Q72, Q101, Q103, and Q105. It would also connect to the  trains and the Long Island Rail Road. 

Route Improvements

  • Improved stop spacing
  • NYC DOT Priority Corridor

Review the Q19 route summary

The proposed Q19 would mostly maintain its existing routing.

To match stop spacing on other Local routes, Q19 stops would be spaced slightly further apart than existing to speed up buses and improve reliability.

No frequency or service span changes are being proposed at this time.
