New bus service, QuickLink 40, to provide east-west transit access
BALTIMORE -- The Maryland Department of Transportation is piloting a new bus service, QuickLink 40, the department said Wednesday.
QuickLink40 service will run from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays, all the way from the Essex to Westgate.

QuickLink bus stops will be designated by a round QuickLink "puck" sign, affixed on top of standard Maryland Transit Administration bus stop signage, according to the MTA.
Key stops include the Bayview Medical Center, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Lexington Market, and the West Baltimore MARC Station and Transit Hub.
