About the route
The proposed Q39 Local runs northbound to Long Island City and southbound to Glendale.
The proposed length of the Q39 Local route is 6.8 miles.
In the existing route, the average stop spacing is 824 feet. Under the proposed route, that would increase to 1,132 feet.
The route would include connections to the B53, B57, B7, Q14, Q32, Q55, Q58, Q59, Q60, Q63, Q66, Q67, Q68, Q69, Q98, Q101, and Q105. It would also connect to the trains.
Route Improvements
- More direct routing
- Improved stop spacing
Review the Q39 route summary
The proposed Q39 would mostly maintain its existing routing, but with more direct service in Long Island City, using Jackson Av to get to Queens Plaza instead of looping around 44 Dr, 23 St, and 43 Av.
To match stop spacing on other Local routes, Q39 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.
