B70 (New York City bus)

The B70 bus route is a public transit line in Brooklyn in New York City, running mostly on 8th Avenue and 39th Street between Sunset Park and Dyker Heights.

It continues at 7th Avenue until at Fort Hamilton Parkway where it turns left.

The Eighth Avenue streetcar line was built and opened on December 1, 1916.

The change would eliminate difficult turns at Fort Hamilton Parkway and 86th Street, and to improve connections with the S53 and S79 bus routes.

[5] On December 1, 2022, the MTA released a draft redesign of the Brooklyn bus network.

[6][7] As part of the redesign, B70 service would be slightly extended to 3rd Avenue and 30th Street at its northern end to serve Industry City.
