From this month's Transit and Bus Committee Meeting

As previously mentioned, the M5 would be split back into two routes:

 

New M5: Would operate between 178th St and around 37th St in Midtown

 

M55: "New" route, would operate between 37th St in Midtown and South Ferry

 

MTA's rationale for terminating both routes at the same point (37th St) is that a lack of available buses prevents a greater overlap between the two routes. 

 

M1: As part of the M5 split, alternate trips would be extended to Worth Street on weekdays, and every trip would be extended on weekends

 

The MTA also plans to hold a public hearing on the M5 split, necessary whenever a route would be heavily altered 

 

Q20 and B24: page 138: Northbound buses rerouted at Broadway Junction via Fulton St and Eastern Parkway, as Van Sinderen Ave becomes one-way southbound only

 

Q30: page 142: service to Queensborough Community College extended from 6 PM to 11 PM 

 

Bus schedule changes: page 145: Proposed frequency and runtime changes to several routes

 

Q70: page 151: Frequency of service increases all day long
