The second award, the 13th annual Schleppie Award, goes to the city's least reliable bus and is marked with golden lumbering elephants on a pedestal.

Staten Island's S48 is the same winner as in 2019, and has improved its average speed from 7.8 MPH in 2019 to 8 MPH in this year's report. 'With buses maintaining higher ridership levels throughout the pandemic, the city's transit leadership should be rolling out the red carpet for riders by enforcing bus lanes and opening all doors for boarding.' 'For years, the M102 has been on the list of slowest buses in New York City, so this year's Pokey Award should come as no surprise,' said Megan Ahearn, with the NYPIRG Straphangers Campaign. The groups noted that at 4.6 mph, the M102 moved slower than a fluttering butterfly, which typically has a pace of 5 mph. Many of the pokiest bus routes run to or within Manhattan, slowed by intense congestion in the borough.

The M102, the recipient of a golden snail on a pedestal, had the slowest speed out of the 77 high-ridership bus routes. Th 17th-annual Pokey Award, given to the slowest local bus route, went to the M102, which clocked in at an average speed of just 4.6 mph. NEW YORK CITY (WABC) - The NYPIRG Straphangers Campaign and TransitCenter on Monday revealed the 'winners' of their annual Schleppie and Pokey awards for poor bus service in New York City.
