The proposed length of the Q51 Limited is 5.6 miles.
This is a new route. The average stop spacing would be 2,361 feet.

Route Improvements
- New connections
- Improved ADA access
Review the Q51 route summary
The proposed Q51 would be a new Linden Blvd route connecting Cambria Heights to Woodhaven Blvd. This new east-west service in southeast Queens would connect with dozens of other bus routes as well as the train at Rockaway Blvd, providing new access across the borough without having to travel to downtown Jamaica to transfer to another route.
To match stop spacing on other Limited routes, Q51 stops would be spaced slightly further apart than Local routes to improve speed and reliability, but still within walking distance.
Since this is a new route, weekday service frequency would initially be 13 minutes during peak hours and 20 minutes during midday and evening hours.
