Bus route in Manhattan and Queens, New York
The M60 Select Bus Service is a bus route in New York City . It is part of MTA Regional Bus Operations , operated by the Manhattan and Bronx Surface Transit Operating Authority (MaBSTOA) under the New York City Transit brand. The M60 provides service between the Upper West Side of Manhattan and LaGuardia Airport in East Elmhurst, Queens , traveling between boroughs via the RFK-Triborough Bridge . It is the only direct public transit option between Manhattan and LaGuardia Airport.
The M60 was introduced in 1992 as an airport connector and is usually advertised as such. Much of the M60's passenger load, however, is from its crosstown service along 125th Street in Harlem ; the M60 is the busiest of the four bus routes that run along the 125th Street Crosstown Line ("125th Street corridor"). On May 25, 2014, the M60 was converted into a Select Bus Service (SBS) route to improve service to-and-from the airport, and service along 125th Street.
