IBX: Brooklyn to Queens in 32 Minutes | New York City News

New York’s biggest transit gamble is here: the Interborough Express, or IBX, a light rail dream connecting Brooklyn and Queens with 18 sleek, modern stations—complete with elevators and wider gates. Priced at $5.5 billion, it’ll zip you from Brooklyn Army Terminal to Roosevelt Ave in just 32 minutes, linking 17 subway lines. This would be NYC’s first brand-new transit line since 1937. Accessibility is front and center—with four existing stations getting full upgrades, two by year’s end. Service could launch in the 2030s, half the funding already secured. Public input starts this fall via environmental reviews and community meetings. The future of transit? It’s finally coming to life.
