Everything about Canarsie Rockaway Parkway Bmt Canarsie Line totally explained
Canarsie–Rockaway Parkway is the southern
terminal station of the
BMT Canarsie Line of the
New York City Subway, and is one of the few grade-level stations in the system. Located at the intersection of
Rockaway Parkway and Glenwood Road in the
Canarsie neighborhood of
Brooklyn, it's served at all times by the train.
An interesting feature at Rockaway Parkway is the operation of a bus transfer station within the
fare control. When the rail and trolley service to Canarsie Pier was discontinued, riders were entitled to a free transfer to the replacement buses. Rather than issue paper transfers so riders could exit to the street for the buses, a loop was built next to the station with a boarding platform. Train riders could walk directly to the bus platform without leaving the fare control zone. At the street, a chain link fence gate blocked access to the bus area to prevent pedestrians from sneaking in for a free ride. The gate was operated by an electric trigger. Other buses serving the station stopped at the curb and picked up passengers outside the fare control.
Adjacent to the station is the Canarsie Yard.
