The de Blasio Administration unveiled an ambitious plan on Tuesday that will place a $200 million "super" bus from Woodside to The Rockaways, right through the middle of Queens.

The design features bus-only lanes, curbside fare payment and wireless technology that activates green lights for approaching buses between Woodside in the north all the way down to the Rockaways on the southern coast.

If all goes according to plan, construction will begin in 2017 and finish in just 1 year, costing the taxpayers $200 million. Check out the DOT press release for more info on the proposal or details on the specific route and planned implementation.
