About the route
The Q23 will be rerouted to 108 St and Ditmars Blvd north of 43 Av and to Yellowstone Blvd in Forest Hills to avoid congestion near Corona Plaza and on Austin St. Service on the existing Astoria Blvd-Roosevelt Av segment on 102/103 Sts will be provided by the new Q14. Service on 29 Av will be discontinued, but with both the Q14 and the Q23, riders in East Elmhurst and Corona will see more frequent bus service overall.
We have removed or relocated some stops to improve speed and reliability.
