Final Report: Shuttle Bus Service Hunters Point Avenue to Manhattan

The shuttle was part of the Queens-LI Mass Transportation Demonstration Program which ran from 2/65 to 7/66, offering bus service from the Hunters Point RR Station to East Side locations in midtown Manhattan. The shuttle had mixed success, always at the mercy of tunnel and Manhattan traffic causing delays, especially in the afternoon, that often resulted in missed train connections. Permanent implementation failed for lack of a bus operator willing to take on the route despite its popularity with riders.
