Review the Bx11 Route Summary
Route
The Bx11 routing will change as part of an effort to simplify the Bx11, Bx18, Bx35, Bx36, Bx40, and Bx42 routes. By streamlining routes, reducing the number of turns, avoiding slow speed segments, and improving stop spacing, customers will see improved reliability and bus speed. The Bx11 will now serve East 174 Street and terminate in the eastbound direction at the Parkchester 6 Station. The extended Bx35 will serve Jennings Street and West Farms Road. To allow the Bx11 to travel directly into Manhattan via Edward L. Grant Highway, the extended Bx18 will replace the existing Bx11 service to Shakespeare Avenue, West 168 Street, Ogden Avenue, and Plimpton Avenue.
Stops
Twenty-one percent (14 of 66) of the Bx11 stops along the new alignment will be removed, improving the average distance between stops from 807 feet to 1,028 feet. By removing these stops, we’ll improve reliability along the route.
See the route profile with full stop list.
Schedule
The Bx11 weekday schedule will be improved to 8 minutes or better all day. Additionally, due to the new route alignment along East 174 Street to Parkchester, the Bx11 will now have overnight service on both weeknights and weekends. Due to the routing change, ridership will be closely monitored, and schedules will be adjusted accordingly.
