The Grand Street Shuttle (black Template:NYCS S) was a New York City Subway service that operated during the long Manhattan Bridge rehabilitation, while the north tracks (connecting to the IND Sixth Avenue Line via the Chrystie Street Connection) were closed. It usually ran between Broadway–Lafayette Street and Grand Street, picking up the slack from rerouted B and D service.

Service disruptions that took the Manhattan Bridge north tracks out of service, with the shuttle running between Broadway–Lafayette Street and Grand Street, included the following:

During the first phase of the Manhattan Bridge rehabilitation, from 1986 to 1988, the shuttle was extended to 57th Street and was called the Sixth Avenue Shuttle while the B and D terminated at 34th Street.

The final Grand Street Shuttle service began on July 22, 2001, again between Broadway–Lafayette Street and Grand Street, while the B and D services were truncated to 34th Street. The Sixth Avenue Shuttle (which also ended at Broadway–Lafayette Street) was ended on December 16, 2001, and the Grand Street Shuttle was extended north to West Fourth Street–Washington Square. The rehabilitation was finished on February 22, 2004, and the shuttle was discontinued.
