New York City Buses are an essential part of the city's public transportation system, operated by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA). They serve all five boroughs—Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, and Staten Island—providing access to neighborhoods not served by the subway. The bus network includes local, express, and select bus service options, catering to different travel needs. Buses are equipped with features like wheelchair accessibility and real-time tracking, making them a convenient choice for many commuters. Riders can pay using a MetroCard or contactless payment methods for easy access.
