One corridor, not a maze

Brooklyn's grid tempts a zig-zag; we don't. Each route follows one avenue or the BQE so the vehicle stays a coherent line and riders learn a predictable stop. The East River crossing — Brooklyn or Manhattan Bridge for Downtown and Midtown, the Hugh L. Carey (Battery) Tunnel for FiDi — is chosen per worksite.

Reverse commutes too

Plenty of Manhattan-based staff now work at Brooklyn sites — the Navy Yard, Industry City, Downtown Brooklyn. We run the corridor both directions, gathering Manhattan riders at a meet point and delivering them to the Brooklyn gate on the same shift timetable.
