B39 (New York City bus)

The B39 constitutes a bus route in Brooklyn and Manhattan. Originally a streetcar route, it is now operated by New York City Transit. As of 2021, this is the only local bus route in Brooklyn that runs to the borough of Manhattan.

Description
It begins at the Williamsburg Bridge Plaza, where it then goes onto the Williamsburg Bridge, and continues on Delancey Street until it ends at Allen Street.

History
The Williamsburg Bridge Local streetcar ran until December 4, 1948. For five months beginning on May 1, 1999, no fare was collected due to the Williamsburg Bridge subway reconstruction. It was discontinued on June 27, 2010 due to a budget crisis, and replaced by a dollar van. Daytime service was then restored on January 6, 2013.
