Bus Rapid Transit proposed route - Sunset Park to JFK

Transit connections to job centers outside of Manhattan will be vital as New York City moves to diversify its economy. Bus Rapid Transit can connect riders to industrial centers, hospitals, universities, and other destinations hard for many riders to reach by subway.

This map shows one of the Pratt Center’s proposed routes, connecting the Sunset Park industrial zone in Brooklyn with JFK Airport and important destinations in between. The route falls within one half mile of 602,932 NYC residents and 206,449 workers, including 33,292 who commute more than one hour each way to earn less than $35,000 annually. Each red dot represents 100 of these low-income extreme commuters.
