I can answer that. When the Jamaica El reached 168th St, passengers getting off the train either walked up from the 165th St exit to the bus terminal, and the steps at 168th St were located midway between Merrick Blvd and 168th ST. You had to walk around the corner [Jamaica & Merrick] and go up about a block to access the buses.

Very few people transferred between the Jamaica El [old BMT 15, JJ/QJ/RJ, KK trains and the Merrick Blvd buses, the buses got their traffic from the E/F trains at 169th and Hillside.
