QM68 Express

Floral Park - Midtown
Associated existing route: X68

For languages other than English, use the Google Translate tool at the bottom of this page. 

About the route

The X68 will be renamed the QM68. All Midtown-bound QM68 trips will make stops on 23 St, Madison Av, and 57 St. Service on 34 St, 42 St, 3 Av, and 5 Av will be discontinued. The Queens-bound QM68 routing in Manhattan will not change. AM peak frequencies will decrease slightly and service spans will change due to low ridership.

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