Some of routes listed below are the direct descendants of
streetcar lines (see
List of streetcar lines on Long Island and
in Queens), and most were privately operated prior to 1973.
Nassau Inter-County Express NICE routes are designated on the buses, bus stop signs, and timetables with a lowercase "n". Previously, the routes were designated with an uppercase "N", akin to routes in larger bus systems surrounding the area. Routes shown are for the full route except for branching. The n4, n6 and the n40/n41 combination provide service 24 hours a day, express routes (X-suffix on the route number) operate rush hours only, with all other routes operating daily except late nights unless otherwise noted. •
Roosevelt Field Mall note: All routes entering Roosevelt Field Mall from Old Country Road travel to/from points east via East Gate Boulevard, and to/from points west via Ring Road West. •
Queens note: NICE routes to Jamaica and Flushing do not carry customers wholly within Queens except where noted. Connections to
New York City Subway stations at the bus routes' terminals are also listed where applicable.
n1 to n27 n31 to n88X Shuttles The Elmont Flexi is a resurrected former regular route, with the Port Washington shuttle being a former MSBA shuttle. These shuttles are now serviced with passenger vans, and operate only during weekday rush hours.
Current route history Discontinued services Note that discontinued services pre-NICE takeover are prefixed with an uppercase "N". Note about the former Jones Beach routes: the original JB routes (except JB87 and JB88) were numbered from the local “N”-labeled route (see above) which each Jones Beach-bound route followed starting its run.
City of Long Beach The City of Long Beach operates five bus routes within the City and to Point Lookout, all originating from the
Long Beach LIRR station. The fare is $2.25 except on the Point Lookout route, which has a $2.75 fare, and payable in cash (coins and $1 bills) only.
