List of bus routes in Westchester County, New York

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Froid (talk | contribs) at 19:25, 7 November 2016 (External links: removed defunct map, provided more accurate references). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

#212 on the 8 line coming out of Getty Square in Yonkers.
Single-door bus used primarily on the routes BxM4C, 43, and 77. Also used occasionally on 10, 11 and shuttle loops.

The Bee-Line Bus System, the bus system for Westchester County, operates a network of bus routes throughout Westchester County, serving destinations throughout much of the county and parts of The Bronx in New York City. Even though not used officially by Bee-Line, routes tend to be identified with a "W" prefix (ex: W60), akin to the routing system in New York City. The process is most evident at bus stops in the Bronx and usage by the MTA and New York City government in various media. Alternatively, they are identified with the "BL" prefix (ex: BL60 or B-L60), as seen on some maps and signage in the New York City Subway system. These routes are listed below.

This table gives details for the Bee-Line routes. For details on non-Bee-Line routes, see the following articles:

Routes
