New York City’s buses run at an average of just 8MPH, making them the slowest in the entire country.
With transit fares rising in a city that’s becoming increasingly unaffordable, slow, unreliable bus service is more than just an inconvenience — it creates artificial barriers to opportunities for everyday New Yorkers.
Let’s do something about it!
Join us on Thursday, August 21, at New Settlement Community Center (1501 Jerome Avenue) from 6:00pm-7:30pm for our Better Buses Bronx Community Meeting, where we’ll discuss:
The issues facing New York’s millions of daily bus and subway riders
Why the buses are slow and how we can fix them
Making transit more affordable for working New Yorkers
Our next Mayor’s role in delivering fast, reliable, affordable transit.
