Anyone who rides the bus in New York City knows that car congestion or a single double-parked vehicle can slow down an otherwise timely and efficient bus trip.

There are tools we can use to keep buses moving through traffic. We call these Bus Priority Treatments. Some are already in use on local and Select Bus Service routes, like the B44, Bx12, M15, M14, Q44, and Q53, among many others. To keep these bus priority treatments effective, we can also enforce them using automated technology.

With support from riders like you, we can work with NYC DOT to add more bus priority and expand those that exist. Learn more about DOT's Better Buses project and share your support here.
