About the route

The proposed Q114 Rush runs northbound to Jamaica and southbound to Far Rockaway.

The proposed length of the Q114 Rush route is 10.7 miles. 

In the existing route, the average stop spacing is 1,359 feet. Under the proposed route, that would decrease to 1,356 feet. 

The route would include connections to the Q4, Q5, Q6, Q8, Q22, Q24, Q25, Q41, Q42, Q43, Q65, Q77, Q83, Q86, Q87, Q110, Q111, Q112, and Q115. It would also connect to the  trains.

Route Improvements

  • Improved stop spacing
  • Improved frequency
  • Fewer route patterns

Review the Q114 route summary

The proposed Q114 would maintain its existing routing, but would absorb existing Q113 service, which would be discontinued. Current Q113 passengers can take the proposed Q114. 

To match stop spacing on other local and limited-stop portions of Rush routes, Q114 stops in Far Rockaway would be spaced slightly further apart than existing, while stops along Guy R. Brewer Blvd would only be located at key destinations and major transfer points. The newly proposed Q115 would provide frequent service along Guy R. Brewer Blvd north of Farmers Blvd.

Frequencies would be increased to resemble existing Q113 and Q114 service combined. Service would continue to operate 24 hours.
