Review the Bx29 Route Summary

Route

The Bx29 routing will change. The route will be shortened, with its northbound terminal moved to the Pelham Bay Park 6 Station.

Key connections include: Bx5Bx12Bx12 Select Bus ServiceBx23Bx24, and Q50 Limited.

Stops

Twenty-eight percent (8 of 29) of the Bx29 stops along the new alignment will be removed, improving stop spacing from 1,480 feet to 2,072 feet. By removing these stops, we’ll improve reliability along the route.

See the route profile with full stop list.

Schedule

The Bx29 schedule will improve. While the Bx29 weekday and weekend frequencies will not change, the route will now provide overnight service to and from City Island. The Bx29 will have the same service frequency and span as it currently does.
