REQ.INFO re NYC fares,etc.
TDO
Hello, NYC knowlegables!
Am planning to take interstateBus to NYC, want to travel city bus
and/or subway to get to the Metropolitan Museum in early May.
What is the cost now for NYcity buses? the subway ?
What is cost for a transfer-pass - from bus to bus ?
- from Subway to bus? (is there such) ?
Approximately how often does #1 bus run in midday, midweek ?
What is most time-effecient bus/subway connection to get from PAuth.Bus
Terminal (on 8Ave.) to the Met.Museum ? (without having to walk the 3
looong blocks from Lexington subw.) :)
Also, How long does it take using #1 Bus to get from 80th to 14th St
starting ~1:30PM ? (want to reach 2Ave near 8St.) How often does bus
on 14thSt run ?
Which subway &/or bus connections would be a better choice ?
Many Thanks for your time and info. Please email me (or at least "cc"
to me) with your reply.

Both $1.50, bus is change, token or metrocard the subway is token or
metrocard (purchasable at participating vendors and the station itself).
Express Bus (interborough)is $4.00

Your coming to early, transfer from bus to subway will be available in
July, transfer between 2 busses is free.

Pick up a timetable on the bus, call the MTA at (718)330-1234 or go to
their website at http://www.mta.nyc.ny.us. there is no 1 bus there is a
prefix that goes by borough: M=Manhattan Q=Queens B=Brooklyn Bx=Bronx
S=Staten Island X=Interborough Express

Take M42 from Bus Terminal to Madison Avenue, then Pick up M1, M2, M3 or
M4 to around 82st. walk one block west to 5th Avenue.
