Why it matters

The plan commits substantial city resources to a service used most heavily by New Yorkers who lack convenient subway access. Its promised 20% speed improvement remains a target that future performance data must verify.

Who is affected

Bus riders across all five boroughs; residents and businesses along 50 selected corridors.

What happens next

NYC DOT and the MTA must publish corridor-specific designs, schedules, and construction plans. Flatbush Avenue rapid-bus service is targeted for 2030.
