The Q5 and Q85 cross the Nassau County border to go the Green Acres Mall in Valley Stream. The Q2 and Q110 leave Queens County as they run along Hempstead Turnpike and onto the Cross Island Parkway where they re-enter city-limits. The Q46 runs along Lakeville Road in Lake Success, Nassau County upon entering Long Island Jewish Medical Center. The Bx16 bus runs in to Westchester County, but only for a block for each branch. The Q111 enters Nassau County to reach its part-time terminal in Cedarhurst. The Q113 serves the Nassau communities of Cedarhurst and Inwood to reach its destination in Far Rockaway. The BxM3 leaves The Bronx to reach its northern terminus in Yonkers.

Merge proposal[edit]

The article Buses in New York City basically covers all of the information covered in here and at the New York City Transit buses article. The information should be merged into each article, and then afterwards, I will suggest that article for deletion. --AEMoreira042281 (talk) 16:06, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1) There are other buses in New York City

2) These bus operating divisions are separate from one another".

The articles should therefore not be merged. --69.123.112.18 (talk) 16:15, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

I am proposing a merger of this article (and of the MTA Regional Bus Operations article) into New York City Transit buses, because of the impending departure of Long Island Bus from the MTA's stable of operations. --AEMoreira042281 (talk) 03:23, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Missing info[edit]

The article is missing the whole Nassau group. NCISfan2 (talk) 17:29, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The MTA doesn't operate in Nassau County anymore, except for very small portions of Queens routes. See the NICE bus article for service in Nassau County. Acps110 ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:42, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
