Provides for the continuation of express bus service to the south shore of Staten Island
This bill directs the state transportation authority to continue funding and operating express bus routes connecting Staten Island's south shore communities (including Tottenville, Prince's Bay, and Rossville) to Manhattan business districts. It specifically requires the authority to take over two existing routes (X23 and X24) from Academy Bus Company starting in 2027, serving communities like Huguenot and Arden Heights. The bill mandates ongoing service for these routes without interruption, ensuring transportation access for residents in these specific Staten Island neighborhoods. It focuses on maintaining current transit infrastructure rather than creating new services or altering route structures.
