==History==

The system was founded on May 1, 1978, by the then Westchester County Department of Transportation to consolidate the bus system with thirteen private bus companies and has been given control over the buses, fare structure, routes, and services. By the 1980s, the bus system had an identity problem in who was providing the service. On May 19, 1987, WCDOT officially named the bus service "The Bee-Line System" with a 'bee-in-flight' mascot drawn by cartoonist [[Jack Davis (cartoonist)|Jack Davis]].<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.utrc2.org/sites/default/files/pubs/Singh-Report.pdf |title=Variable Fares for Elderly & Handicapped Transit Riders: An Analysis of Westchester County }}&nbsp;{{small|(1.25 MB)}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Kriss |first1=Gary |title=BUSBus SYSTEMSystem GETSGets Aa NAMEName ANDAnd Aa LOGOLogo |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1987/05/24/nyregion/bus-system-gets-a-name-and-a-logo.html |website=[[The New York Times]] |access-date=July 7, 2021-07-07 |date=May 24, 1987-05-24}}</ref>

The Westchester County Department of Public Works and Transportation currently contracts out to two private bus companies to provide service in Westchester County and the surrounding counties: [[Yonkers, New York|Yonkers]]-based [[Liberty Lines Transit, Inc.]], the main company that either bought out or obtained franchises from the other twelve bus companies over the years, operates buses on all but three bus routes; and [[Cortlandt Manor, New York|Cortlandt Manor]]-based P.T.L.A. Enterprise, Inc., a small company that operates buses on routes 16, 18, and 31.

==Scope of service==

[[File:Valhalla Bee-line HQ jeh.jpg|thumb|left|The Cerrato Satellite Bus Facility in Valhalla]]

Most Bee-Line routes operate seven days a week. ThereBefore is2025, there was no service county-wide on two days of the calendar year, [[Thanksgiving (United States)|Thanksgiving]] (the fourth Thursday in November), and [[Christmas]] (December 25).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://transportation.westchestergov.com/images/stories/Schedules/2025holidayschedules.pdf|title=2025 Holiday Schedules|website=transportation.westchestergov.com|access-date=2025-05-17}}</ref>

===Within Westchester===

Line 46 ⟶ 47:

The system's 64 routes are mostly concentrated in the more urban southern portion of the county, with the cities of [[Mount Vernon, New York|Mount Vernon]], [[New Rochelle, New York|New Rochelle]], and [[Yonkers, New York|Yonkers]] receiving a high frequency of service. [[White Plains, New York|White Plains]], the county seat and most centrally located city, is a major transportation hub with many routes converging on the city's TransCenter.

Service in the northern portion of Westchester is sparse and is concentrated near slightly populated areas such as [[Mount Kisco]], [[Ossining (village), New York|Ossining]], or [[Peekskill]]. Areas such as [[Lewisboro, New York|Lewisboro]], [[North Salem, New York|North Salem]], and [[Pound Ridge, New York|Pound Ridge]] receive paratransit service only. During the school year, special bus routes also operate. All but the county's smallest, most rural communities have at least [[rush hour]] service.<ref name=Bee-Line-Service>{{cite web |url= httphttps://transportation.westchestergov.com/images/stories/pdfs/SysMapENG28juneSmartC/wcdotsysmapeng032025.pdf |date=March 20112025 |title= Bee-Line System mapMap |website= transportation.westchestergov.com |access-date= 20122025-0105-01 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20151018142502/http://transportation.westchestergov.com/images/stories/pdfs/SysMapENG28june.pdf |archive-date= 2015-10-18 |url-status= dead }}&nbsp;{{small|(4.64 MB)17}}</ref>

===Outside Westchester===

Because Westchester County borders on the [[New York City]] [[borough (New York City)|borough]] of [[the Bronx]], many of the Bee-Line's routes operate into the Bronx, offering Westchester residents connections to [[MTA New York City Transit]] [[MTA Regional Bus Operations|buses]] and [[New York City Subway|subways]]; at least one Bee-Line route connects to each [[List of New York City Subway stations in the Bronx#Lines and services|subway route]] serving the Bronx. The Bee-Line System also operates an express route, the '''BxM4C''' from White Plains, [[Greenburgh, New York|Greenburgh]], [[Hartsdale, New York|Hartsdale]], [[Scarsdale, New York|Scarsdale]], and Yonkers along [[New York State Route 100|Central Park Avenue]] to [[Fifth Avenue]] in [[Manhattan]] (return trips operate on [[Madison Avenue]] within Manhattan).

Bee-Line operates mostly closed-door service in the Bronx (local service is not provided solely for travel within the Bronx; appropriate MTA Regional Bus Operations service must be used instead). The only exceptions are:

* '''Routes 40, 41, 42 and 43''', which run along [[White Plains Road]] north of the [[Wakefield – 241st Street (IRT White Plains Road Line)|Wakefield – 241st Street]] subway terminal;

* '''Route 45''', which serves the [[Pelham Bay Park (IRT Pelham Line)|Pelham Bay Park]] subway terminal, the Pelham Bay and Split Rock Golf Course, and the [[Bartow-Pell Mansion]];

The Westchester County Department of Transportation states that "OMNY is targeted for introduction on the Bee-Line Bus System beginning in 2022 at the earliest." OMNY hasn't been installed {{as of 2023|2025|05|lc=y}}, but is expected to be installed in late 20232025 to early 20242026. MetroCard will continue to be accepted by New York City Transit subways and buses and Bee-Line service until 20242026, enabling Bee-Line passengers to have the option of using MetroCard or OMNY during the transition phase. By 20242026, MetroCard will be discontinued and all Bee-Line passengers will then use OMNY. The Reduced-Fare MetroCard Program will also be converted over to OMNY."<ref>{{Cite web|title=OMNY/Bee-line|url=https://transportation.westchestergov.com/omny|access-date=20212025-0105-3117|website=transportation.westchestergov.com}}</ref>

As of July 2020, 106 40-foot diesel-electric buses and two 40-foot battery-electric are planned to be delivered between 2021 and 2025.
