    East Bronx Bus Route Revision Takes Effect


    Service Changes to Bx4A, Bx8 and Bx24

    MTA New York City Transit announces that effective Sunday, January 2, route changes were
    made in order to improve service to our East Bronx customers. The Bx8 has been restored to
    its original pre-June 2010 routing via Layton Avenue and Crosby Avenue to the Buhre Avenue
    (6) station. The Bx24 now serves Country Club and Spencer Estates on the route of the
    discontinued Bx14 between Country Club and the Pelham Bay (6) station. The Bx24 operates
    as a loop every 30 minutes between the hours of 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.

    In Parkchester, alternate trips of the Bx4 (called the Bx4A) will serve Metropolitan Avenue
    between Hugh Grant Circle and Westchester Square. The Bx4 and Bx4A operate on the same
    route between Hugh Grant Circle and the Hub. The Bx4A will allow a one-seat ride to
    destinations along Westchester Avenue to the Hub at 3rd Avenue and 149th Street. It operates
    the same span as the former Bx14, which is, peak hours on weekdays – every 14-20 minutes,
    off-peak – every 24 minutes, Saturdays – every 16-22 minutes and Sundays – every 22-30
    minutes.

    NYC Transit expects that these reroutings should more closely meet the needs of residents at
    no additional cost to the Agency.

    For further information, customer may log on to www.mta.info or call Travel Information at
    718-330-1234 from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., daily.
