Review the B66 route summary
The proposed B66 would be a new route connecting Williamsburg and Broadway Junction. This route would replace existing B60 service between Williamsburg Bridge Plaza and Fulton St, with an extension to the future accessible Broadway Junction station. Northbound service between Broadway and Wilson Av would be rerouted from narrow Decatur St onto Cooper St to match southbound service, simplifying the route path. Northbound service between Johnson Av and Meserole St would be rerouted from Graham Av onto Bushwick Av to match southbound service and to provide a direct connection to the Montrose Av station and to the proposed B15.
As a Local route, stops would be spaced slightly farther apart than existing to speed up buses and improve reliability.
Frequencies would be slightly lower compared to the existing B60 but would still match ridership demand. The route would operate 24 hours on weekdays and weekends.
