Anyone here familiar with the bus routes?
On the WB bound bus, where is the last stop in BP?
How long would it take me to get from there to WB-Broadway and Marcy Ave area?
Approximately.

TIA

The last stop in BP is on 18th Avenue between 49&50th. It's also the 1st stop. The closest stop in Williamsburg to Marcy and Broadway would be Lee Avenue Corner Taylor Street. It's about 3 blocks from Marcy & Broadway. How long it will take depends on the time of day & traffic. Anytime from 45 minutes to over an hour. I've sat on the bus for 2 hours already.

Thanks!
Any idea how long commute is from there to WB?
Is there any train in BP that will get me there quicker?
(I live close to the F subway but it’s an hour commute).

Oh sorry, I got mixed up. The last stop in BP towards Williamsburg is on Fort Hamilton I think at 40th or 38th Street.

From the Ft Hamilton stop til Wmsbg isnt long, usually 20-30 mins. In Wmsbg you might start encountering traffic but youre best off staying on the bus til the last stop, which is Lee and Taylor. It's not far from Bway/Marcy.
You can also take the F train, switch the G, and get off at the Broadway/Heyward stop. You can take a city bus down broadway.
But personally in these times I wouldnt rush to take a train.

I took the f train to broadway and Marcy-switched over to M at Broadway Lafayette-and it took me an hour.
I’m trying to figure out if there’s a quicker way of getting there, as I may take a job in WB and have to commute every day.

I've sat on the highway already for over an hour. From about 3-6 there's terrible traffic. Even the streets take forever.

I prefer the subway to buses for that reason...trains don't get stuck in traffic.
Is there a train that will get me to WB and back in less than an hour?
Does the B or D train go to WB?

Pick up the bus on Ft Hamilton and 43rd Street. Take it to the last stop in Williamsburg. Probably takes 35 minutes.

The F&G combo is the best & quickest way to get to Wmsbg. the question is where in wmsbg do you work, so I can figure out which stop you shoudl get off.

According to MTA trip planner it’s a nearly one hour commute from the F or G to WB.
