PETITION TO EXTEND B68 BUS SERVICE

A petition to the president of the MTA to temporarily extend B68 bus service to the 7th Avenue-9th Street F and G train station has been posted by New York City Councilmember Brad Lander. The route currently ends at at the 15th Street-Prospect Park F and G station at Bartel Pritchard Square.

The petition asks that service be extended while northbound service at the Fort Hamilton Parkway and 15th Street stations is suspended from January through May and southbound service is suspended from November through March.

NY1 covered the story with an article ("Brooklynites Ask For Bus Line Extension To Replace F, G Train Service") and a video.
