Honestly, I couldn't find exact pins for some of these stops so view with caution. They're as close as I guess they could be.

The Lakeland Bus Route 46 is a primary local-express hybrid that connects the suburban residential corridors of Morris and Essex Counties directly to Midtown Manhattan. While other routes might focus on high-speed highway travel, Route 46 is known for its extensive "sweep" of local communities before it enters the express lanes.

Route Start: Dover Lakeland Bus Terminal

The route originates at the Lakeland Bus Terminal on East Blackwell Street in Dover, NJ. This serves as the primary staging point for the fleet.

From Dover, the bus heads eastbound, following a path that services several major towns and a long list of specific street-side stops:

• Dover to Rockaway: The bus picks up along East Blackwell Street and Rockaway Road, serving several local apartment complexes.

• Rockaway to Denville: It continues along Main Street, making multiple stops at intersections like Swedemine Road, Elycroft Road, and Beach Street. A major boarding point is the Savage Road Park & Ride in Denville.

• Mountain Lakes: The bus travels along The Boulevard, making a series of neighborhood stops including Pocono Road, Glen Road, and Powerville Road.

• Boonton: Serving the heart of Boonton along Main Street, with stops near the Post Office and Washington Avenue.

• Parsippany-Troy Hills: This is a high-volume segment where the bus hits several major commuter facilities, including the Waterview Park & Ride, Baldwin Road, and Beverwyck Road.

The Route 46 & Express Stretch

After serving the Parsippany hubs, the bus transitions to Route 46 East. It continues to make stops at major intersections on the highway shoulder, including:

• Fairfield: Stops at Hollywood Avenue and Passaic Avenue.

• Wayne: A significant stop at the Willowbrook Mall (usually on the Route 46 shoulder) before the bus goes fully express.

Route End: New York City (Port Authority)

Once the bus clears the North Jersey local traffic, it utilizes the New Jersey Turnpike and the Lincoln Tunnel to enter Manhattan.

• Final Terminus: The route concludes at the Port Authority Bus Terminal (PABT) on 42nd Street.
