Bee-Line Bus General Information
Bee-Line Bus
Information about the Bee-Line system is available in alternative accessible formats on request.
Over 65 percent of all Westchester County residents are within walking distance of a Bee-Line bus route, making the bus both close and convenient.
Riding public transit is a great travel choice. It helps our environment by reducing air pollution and traffic congestion. It's also a bargain. Transit fares are competitive with the out-of-pocket costs of driving, especially if you pay for parking. We deal with the traffic hassles for you, and you get time to read, relax, socialize, plan your day or even your next vacation.
Bus Service and Bus Stop Guidelines
Guidelines have been prepared to serve as a basic planning tool for municipal staff, governmental agencies and consultants engaged in site design and review activities. The guidelines are intended to promote a better understanding of bus characteristics, operational needs and dimensional requirements so that public transit benefits are fully realized and integrated with local planning policies. More information is available on Bus Stop Planning and Design Guidelines in the Planning Division.
OMNY
OMNY will be available on Bee-Line buses starting Sunday, January 4th. With OMNY, riders can simply tap and pay using a contactless credit or debit card, a digital wallet, or an OMNY card.

Senior and Disabled Services
Seniors and the disabled can stay independent while leaving the driving to us. If stepping onto the bus is difficult for you, the bus can "kneel" to lower the first step height. Feel free to ask the bus operator to kneel the bus to assist you in boarding or exiting.
Paratransit
Bee-Line ParaTransit is a shared ride service. Appointments must be made from one to four days in advance. Although ParaTransit currently provides some services beyond those required under the Americans with Disabilities Act, the future goal is to more closely mirror regular Bee-Line bus service.

Planning your next trip on the Bee-Line bus system is a breeze when you use Google maps or the 511NY Trip Planner Tool.
