HAMPTON JITNEY BROOKLYN SERVICE TO BEGIN THIS WEEKEND

The Hampton Jitney, which provides transportation between New York City and Long Island’s East End, will begin its Brooklyn service Friday evening — picking up passengers between 5:30 and 6 p.m. in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn Heights, and two locations in Park Slope.

Though the Jitney has long provided Hamptons service from locations on the Upper East Side and Midtown, this is the first summer season that its buses will pick up passengers in Brooklyn.

Buses stopping in Brooklyn will make stops on the Jitney’s Montauk and North Fork lines only. Return service departs from various East End locations between 5 and 6:30 p.m. on Sundays. An adult, round-trip ticket costs $51.
