Fast Buses Alert! Buses are about to speed up for over 130,000 daily riders. Today work begins on a redesign of Fordham Road in the Bronx. The project includes dedicated offset bus lanes, along with added parking and loading spaces along this critical street.

Severe thunderstorms are hitting across New York City, and much of the city is under a flood advisory. Don’t risk your safety in these dangerous conditions. - Exercise caution while traveling. - Take public transit whenever possible. - Never walk, bike, or drive through floodwaters. - If rain and storms are severe, seek shelter indoors and wait for conditions to improve before traveling. No destination is worth risking your safety. - Strong winds can carry loose objects and down trees and power lines. Remain vigilant and go inside if winds pick up. - Stay out of flooded basements. Sign up for emergency alerts from @NotifyNYC by texting NOTIFYNYC to 692-692 and report any issues like downed trees or blocked catch basins to @nyc311. Visit nyc.gov/beready for emergency preparedness tips.

Attention Central Brooklyn bus riders! Bus Summer continues!   We’re planning major upgrades on three critical corridors in Central Brooklyn.   Flatbush Ave, Utica Ave, and Church Ave will be the new standard for world-class bus service improving commutes for over 150,000 riders.

The end of lugging your bike up the stairs to your fifth-floor walkup is near 😤 @NYC_DOT is bringing 500 secure bike parking lockers to New York City's streets by the end of 2027! And there's still time to request one for your block 👇

We know there’s a lot in our new bus action plan, Next Stop: Fast Buses, Better Service. Commissioner Mike Flynn sat down with @errollouis of @InsideCityHall on @NY1 to break it all down for you. Watch the interview here: ny1.com/nyc/all-boroug…

It’s only been a week since @NYCMayor announced Next Stop, and we’re already getting to work. For 39,000 daily Bronx bus riders, faster, more reliable service means less time waiting, and less time in traffic. That’s why we’re building the Tremont Ave busway this year.

All we do is win, win, win no matter what. C’mon @NYCMayor did you think you were going to beat DOT at a street-related game? This is like challenging @NYCPlanning to a game of SimCity.

“New York City’s buses are more than transportation — they are one of the most powerful engines of opportunity in the city” Read NYC DOT Commissioner Mike Flynn's @NYDailyNews op-ed about our new bus action plan, Next Stop: Fast Buses, Better Service. nydailynews.com/2026/07/09/fas…

How can we make New York City’s bus system better?   That’s exactly the question at the heart of our action plan Next Stop: Fast Buses, Better Service.   We went to Tremont Avenue in the Bronx to talk to some bus riders and see what frustrations they have with the status quo.

“if you ain’t first, you’re last.” - ricky bobby we’re cheering on Assistant Commissioner Diniece Mendes as she squares off with @NYCMayor at Mario Kart while they discuss our new bus action plan (disclaimer: we only support two kinds of fast: buses and Mario Kart) tune in 👇

Mayor Mamdani promised New Yorkers fast buses and better service. We're taking that commitment to the next level. Next Stop: Fast Buses, Better Service is our action plan for a world-class bus system our city deserves. One that is fast, reliable, and comfortable for every rider.
