About the route
The proposed Q13 Rush route would run westbound to Flushing and eastbound to Fort Totten.

In the existing route, the average stop spacing is 688 feet. Under the proposed route, that would increase to 1,146 feet.
The route would include connections to the Q12, Q15, Q16, Q26, Q28, Q31, Q44, Q61, and Q65. It would also connect to the train and the Long Island Rail Road.

Review the Q13 route summary
The proposed Q13 would maintain its existing routing along Bell Blvd, but would be realigned on its western end to serve Sanford Av instead of Northern Blvd, at major transfer points only. The discontinued segment of Northern Blvd would still be served by the proposed Q12 and Q28.
To match stop spacing on other local and limited-stop portions of Rush routes, Q13 stops along Bell Blvd would be spaced slightly further apart than existing, while stops along Northern Blvd and Sanford Av would be located at key destinations and major transfer points. Local service along Sanford Av would be provided by the proposed Q65.
No frequency or span changes are being proposed at this time.
