Source-derived summary

New Jersey Transit operates interstate bus routes running to various locations in Manhattan in New York City. Most serve the Port Authority Bus Terminal (PABT) in Midtown; the remainder serve the George Washington Bridge Bus Terminal in Washington Heights or run in the streets of Lower Manhattan.

The list below is sorted by division, New York terminal, the New Jersey region served, major streets, general operational details (e.g. variations, express services, short turns, operating hours), history, and garages where the routes are based. Unless otherwise noted, routes labeled "Weekday rush hours only" run to New York during the AM rush and to New Jersey during the PM rush.

During morning rush hour, many PABT-bound routes use the Lincoln Tunnel express bus lane (XBL), a dedicated reversible lane that travels eastbound along Route 495. There is no west-bound XBL during the evening rush hour.

Many PABT-bound routes make stops along 30th and 31st Streets in Union City rather than running nonstop on Route 495. Routes labeled "Serves Union City" are frequently scheduled to do this. This label is not used for routes which make local stops in Union City anywhere other than 30th and 31st Streets.

The current 195-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with List, Transit and routes providing the first useful test.
