About the route

The proposed Q76 Local runs northbound to College Point and southbound to Jamaica.

The proposed length of the Q76 Local route is 9.5 miles.

In the existing route, the average stop spacing is 833 feet. Under the proposed route, that would increase to 1,207 feet.

The route would include connections to the Q1, Q12, Q13, Q15, Q16, Q17, Q20, Q25, Q26, Q27, Q31, Q36, Q43, Q44, Q46, Q48, Q61, Q62, Q77, and Q88. It would also connect to the train and the Long Island Rail Road.

Review the Q76 route summary

The proposed Q76 would mostly maintain its existing routing, but would be realigned at its northern end across 20 Av instead of the Cross Island Service Rd, providing a more direct path to College Point. The route would also be extended to College Point Blvd to provide better eastwest connectivity across the neighborhood. Service along the Cross Island Service Rd would be provided by the proposed new Q62.

To match stop spacing on other Local routes, Q76 stops would be spaced slightly further apart than existing to speed up buses and improve reliability.

Sunday AM and PM frequencies would be slightly adjusted. Service spans would be slightly adjusted to match ridership patterns.
