Route 16A Westbound to Greater Portmore, taken on June 27, 2023.
Welcome to JUTC's longest local route! At a whopping 32 kilometres, this route serves as a "Jack-of-all-trades" connection between most Portmore communities and Cross Roads, an area underserved by Portmore routes, bypassing the toll road and also providing a useful connection to Washington Boulevard.

Bus comments: Unfortunately this video was marred somewhat by suspension issues from Half-Way Tree and Oxford roads and midway into Balmoral Avenue. Otherwise this articulated bus is one of the oldest in the fleet and one of the few buses to remain in white (their rigid coach counterparts were all repainted in yellow).
