Second Avenue Line (surface)

The Second Avenue Line is a bus line in Manhattan, New York City, United States, running mostly along Second Avenue (and northbound on First Avenue since 1951) from Lower Manhattan to East Harlem. Originally a streetcar line, it is now the southbound direction of the M15 bus route, the busiest bus route in the U.S. with an annual ridership just shy of 17.5 million.〔(Average weekday NYC transit bus ridership )〕 (However, the M15 is the only route on First and Second Avenues, while the one-way pair of Madison and Fifth Avenues has a higher frequency of local buses past Central Park, split among four routes (M1/M2/M3/M4).〔2000 figures from the (Second Avenue Subway SDEIS, Appendix D.2 ), page 3〕) MTA Regional Bus Operations, under the New York City Bus and Select Bus Service brands, operates the route out of the 126th Street Bus Depot.〔(Testimony by State Senator José M. Serrano given before the City Council Transportation Committee Hearing on MTA Environmental Practices ), October 18, 2006〕 Service is operated exclusively with articulated buses.
==History==
The Second Avenue Railroad opened the line in 1853 and 1854, from Peck Slip on the East River north along Pearl Street, Bowery (shared with the Third Avenue Line), Grand Street, Chrystie Street, and Second Avenue to East Harlem. A short branch was later built along Stuyvesant Street and Astor Place to end at Broadway in NoHo. The Metropolitan Street Railway leased the line in January 1898, and on April 3 the line from Astor Place to Manhattan was electrified. The original line was later electrified to the Bowery, where streetcars used the Third Avenue Line to City Hall, and the line to Peck Slip was abandoned. Buses were substituted for streetcars by the East Side Omnibus Corporation on June 25, 1933. The New York City Board of Transportation took over operations in 1948, with the New York City Transit Authority replacing it in 1953.
In late 2004, the New York City Department of Transportation selected the route as one of the candidates for bus rapid transit service, along with Fordham Road (since implemented), Nostrand Avenue, Merrick Boulevard, and Hylan Boulevard. Six years later, on October 10, 2010, service began on the M15 Select Bus Service.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MTA Bus Company Committee Meeting Materials, July 2010 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nyc.gov/html/brt/downloads/pdf/1st2ndavenews_vol1iss1.pdf )〕 By then, the MTA had discontinued service to City Hall due to budget cuts.
