New NYC law requires a permit for intercity buses to operate curbside

(New York, NY – WNYC) UPDATE: A source in the NY State Senate says this bill is now a state law. Here’s a few of the law’s main points:

Bus permit applications must include identification of the intercity bus company, buses to be used, and bus stop location(s) being requested; total number of buses and passengers expected to use each location; bus schedules; places where buses would park when not in use.
