About the route

The proposed B35 Local runs between Brownsville and Sunset Park. 

The current length of the B35 route is 4.3 miles. The proposed length of the B35 Local route is 6.5 miles.

In the existing route, the average stop spacing is 716 feet. Under the proposed route, that would increase to 923 feet. 

In the existing route, there are 1.3 turns per mile. Under the proposed route, that would decrease to 0.9 turns per mile.

The route would include connections to the B7, B8, B15, B16, B17, B37, B40, B41, B41-SBS, B44, B44-SBS, B47, B49, B55, B60, B63, B67, B68, B70, B76, B81, and the  trains.

  • Fewer route patterns
  • Priority Corridor

Review the B35 route summary

The proposed B35 would maintain the same routing as the existing overnight route, traveling between 39 St/1 Av and Mother Gaston Blvd/Hegeman Av at all times. Existing B35 LTD service would be replaced by the proposed new B55 Crosstown connecting Church Av/McDonald Av and JFK Airport via Church Av, New Lots Av, and Linden Blvd.

As a Local route, stops would be spaced slightly farther apart than existing to speed up buses and improve reliability.

Frequencies would be the same as the existing B35 Local, with a slight increase in the Weekday PM Peak. No service span changes are being proposed at this time.
