Supplemental Transportation During Shut Down Period

During the six month Tram shutdown, in addition to the MTA's F train subway service and Q102 bus, RIOC will operate special shuttle buses ($1 fare) to accommodate those residents and visitors for whom using the F train is too difficult. During non-peak periods (10 AM to 2:30 PM and 7 PM to 11 PM), when traffic is less congested on the Queensboro Bridge, the RIOC shuttle bus will depart the island and run express to a bus stop on the west side of 2^nd Ave. between 58^th and 59^th Street. It will pick up passengers from that bus stop and run express back to the Island. There will be special shuttle bus picking up school children in Manhattan at 4 PM weekdays.  There will be hourly weekend bus shuttle service from 10 AM to 11:30 PM.
