About the route

Changes to the QM2 take effect June 29, 2025.

The QM2 will maintain its existing routing between Bay Terrace and Midtown Manhattan. Some frequencies will decrease due to low ridership. Existing weekend trips through Linden Hill will be maintained.

We have removed or relocated some stops to improve speed and reliability.
