      I don't think so. I think you need to go further out in Brooklyn to get Express buses.

      It's amazingly accurate, timewise.

      Not the only way. The MTA has partnered with google for a new service:

      So far I've found the google time estimates to be pretty off. Like saying a 50 minute trip will only take 32 minutes. Hopstop is still my go to I need accurate times.

      I also prefer HopStop. In my experience it's been pretty accurate or else includes a few extra minutes of cushion time, which I don't mind at all. The MTA / Google function, on the other hand, was 15 minutes off on at least one occasion (resulting in me being late!),

      Express buses usually don't go too much more north than like Bay Ridge -- they're all listed on MTA's website.

      Nevertheless, it's generated over 3200 views.

      Anyone detect an untapped market for express service from PS to Manhattan?
