線路說明和服務

[編輯]

肯尼迪機場方向的Q3從皇后區牙買加165街巴士總站的5號車道出發。然後途經山邊大道，最後向南轉入農夫大道，途經第187巷。線路繼續穿過霍利斯社區，在長島鐵路車站停留。然後經過聖奧爾本斯，在位於洛克斯特莊園的長島鐵路站停靠。然後繼續前行，途經斯普林菲爾德花園，最後穿過洛克威大道，經北邊界路、第148街和肯尼迪高速公路進入約翰·甘向西行駛，然後沿第130巷向北行駛，沿泛美路向西行駛，在萊弗茨林蔭路向北行駛。Q3的終點站是甘迺迪國際機場捷運的萊弗茨林蔭路站。[3][5]

牙買加方向的巴士路線與肯尼迪機場方向的巴士路線基本相反。公共汽車在萊弗茨大道向南行駛，沿泛美路向東行駛，沿第130巷向南行駛，沿凡維克高速公路及其輔路向南和向東行駛。在8號航站樓停靠後，沿肯尼迪高速公路、148街和北邊界路轉彎。離開機場後，牙買加方向的Q3線路沿農民大道行駛，然後向北轉入第188街，向西轉入山邊大道，終點站是第165街巴士總站的5號車道。[3][5]

Q3的大部分乘客來自肯尼迪機場的機場員工。[6]該線路延伸至肯尼迪機場後，更多乘客開始使用Q3，皇后區的就業機會也隨之增加，機場員工被鼓勵搬到皇后區，道路擁堵狀況也得到緩解。[7]

History

Early history

[編輯]

The Saint Albans Improvement Association obtained a permit to operate a bus line between St. Albans and Jamaica, Queens, around 1920.[8] The association hired Mortimer Randel to operate the line.[8][9] The route was put under the supervision of the New York City Department of Plant & Structures, which established the Saint Albans–Hollis–Jamaica line in March 1922.[10] The route ran from Saint Marks Avenue (now 119th Avenue), via Farmers Avenue, Seminole Avenue and Villard Avenue (both now 190th Street), and Hillside Avenue to Union Hall Street.[10][11] Because the majority of the route ran via Farmers Boulevard, it was known as the Farmers Boulevard Line.[12]

The Hillside Avenue-Farmers Blvd bus was transferred to Bee Line Bus Incorporated in 1923 and was labeled the Q3.[13] The Q3 route originated from 163rd Street and Jamaica Avenue in the Jamaica business district;[14] the route then ran along 165th Street, Hillside Avenue, 187th Place, and Farmers Avenue, terminating at the intersection of Farmers Avenue and Merrick Road.[15] On October 1, 1930,[16] the Bee Line routes began terminating at the newly constructed Jamaica Union Bus Terminal near its former terminus. The new bus terminal was located at Jamaica Avenue and New York Boulevard (now Guy R. Brewer Boulevard), adjacent to the now-closed Union Hall Street Long Island Rail Road station.[16][17][18][19]

On August 11, 1936, the Bee-Line routes were moved to the newly opened 165th Street Bus Terminal (then the Long Island Bus Terminal).[20][21][22] In May 1939, Bee-Line relinquished its Queens routes.[23] The bus was assumed by the North Shore Bus Company on May 22, 1939. These routes began operation from the terminal under North Shore Bus Company on June 25, 1939,[24] as part of the company's takeover of nearly all routes in Zone D (Jamaica and Southeast Queens).[25][26][27] The route was extended to Rockaway Boulevard on July 1, 1939. The route was cut back to the 165th Street Bus Terminal from 163rd Street and Jamaica Avenue on October 27, 1939.[13]

NYCBOT and NYCTA operation

[編輯]

On March 30, 1947, North Shore Bus would be taken over by the New York City Board of Transportation (NYCBOT; later the New York City Transit Authority or NYCTA), making the bus route city operated.[28][29][30][31]

Q3 service was extended from Rockaway Boulevard to JFK International Airport on December 6, 1987.[7][32] Prior to the extension, the Q3 only operated during weekday morning and evening peak periods. However, once the route was extended, the route was expanded to 21 hours per day, 7 days a week.[7] This extension was not designed for air travelers, as evident by the route's roundabout routing, but it was instead intended for airport employees, those at JFK Airport. In the areas of southeast Queens where the Q3 operates, there is a high concentration of airport workers, and before the extension, they had no direct access via public transportation.[2] The headways during peak-periods were shortened from 20–25 minutes to 15 minutes, and new midday, evening, and weekend service was provided every 30 minutes. The new extensions, was extensively advertised through the use of brochures and timetables, which were the first for a local bus in Queens. These were distributed by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to its employees at JFK, and articles were written about the extension in airport newspapers and newsletters. All households in southeast Queens got mailings. A special inaugural bus with local dignitaries ran on December 6, 1987, with a celebration at JFK. Additional service was added to the route because of increased patronage of the route. A majority of the people who started using the Q3 to get to the airport previously to travel by car.[2]

24-hour service was added to the Q3 on April 11, 2004. At the same time, service to all JFK terminals except Terminal 4 was replaced by AirTrain JFK.[33][34] The route's JFK Terminus was moved to Terminal 5 on May 30, 2012, due to construction at Terminal 4.[34][35]

In December 2019, the MTA released a draft redesign of the Queens bus network.[36][37] As part of the redesign, the Q3 would have been replaced by a "neighborhood" bus route, the QT68, which would have been extended south to Federal Circle and north to Jamaica Hospital.[38] The redesign was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City in 2020,[39] and the original draft plan was dropped due to negative feedback.[40] A revised plan was released in March 2022.[41] Shortly before the announcement of the bus redesign, the Q3 was extended southwest to the AirTrain JFK's Lefferts Boulevard station to accommodate long-term construction at JFK Airport on March 27, 2022. The changes would remain in effect until at least 2026, when JFK's new Central Terminal Area was completed.[42] The new draft plan also called for the Q3 to be extended to the Lefferts Boulevard station. Therefore, no further changes to the Q3 would need to be made in the bus redesign, other than the elimination of closely spaced stops.[43] A final bus-redesign plan was released in December 2023.[44][45] Under this plan, the Q3's extension to the Lefferts Boulevard station would be made permanent.[46]
