About the route
The proposed Q9 Rush route runs northbound to Jamaica and southbound to South Ozone Park.
The proposed length of the Q9 Rush route is 3.8 miles.
In the existing route, the average stop spacing is 819 feet. Under the proposed route, that would increase to 1,243 feet.
The route would include connections to the Q1, Q6, Q7, Q20, Q24, Q30, Q31, Q37, Q40, Q41, Q43, Q44, Q51, Q54, Q56, Q60, Q112. It would also connect to the trains and the Long Island Rail Road.
Route Improvements

Review the Q9 route summary
The proposed Q9 would be extended south along 130 St, terminating at 135 Rd/130 Pl where the existing Q37 termi- nates. This extension would provide service where the Q10 would no longer be operating.
To match stop spacing on other local and limited-stop portions of Rush routes, Q9 stops along Lincoln St and 130 St would be spaced slightly further apart than existing, while stops along Liberty Av and Sutphin Blvd would only be located at key destinations and major transfer points. The proposed Q112 would still provide access to local stops along Liberty Av and Sutphin Blvd.
No frequency or service span changes are being proposed at this time.
