Review the B69 route summary
The proposed B69 would be rerouted on its northern end to Greenpoint via the existing B48 travel path, maintaining its connection to much of the Brooklyn Navy Yard while improving connectivity in northern Brooklyn. Connections would now be available to the future accessible Lorimer St and stations. Service on the western portion of Flushing Av would be provided by the proposed B48 and B62. Service between Park Slope and the western end of the Brooklyn Navy Yard would still be available via the proposed B67. On its southern end, the proposed B69 would be shortened, terminating at Prospect Park W/20 St. Service on McDonald Av would be provided by the proposed B67 and B81.
As a Local route, stops would be spaced slightly farther apart than existing to speed up buses and improve reliability.
No frequency changes are being proposed at this time. Service spans would be lengthened.
