Review the Bx38 Route Summary

Route

The Bx38 routing will not change. The existing route serves important destinations and transfer points in Co-op City and the eastern Bronx.

Note: The Draft Proposal to discontinue Bx38 service will not be implemented.

Key connecting routes include: Bx10Bx28Bx30Bx31Bx39, and Bx41 Select Bus Service.

Stops

Fourteen percent (10 of 70) of Bx38 stops will be removed, improving the average distance between stops from 913 feet to 1,067 feet. By removing these stops, we’ll improve reliability along the route.

See the route profile with full stop list.

Schedule

The Bx38 weekday schedule will improve moderately. To make up for the loss of the Bx30 from Gun Hill Road, weekday frequencies will be improved to match expected ridership. Spans of service and weekend frequencies will remain as they currently are.
