Transit aims for 1 train service on Monday
ByThe MTA’s latest foray into digital technology is Twitter. Via the account at NYCTSubwayScoop, agency spokespeople have been releasing numerous pictures of the repair efforts at 181st St. Crews are up there constantly, but the station — and Northern Manhattan transportation — is a mess.
Meanwhile, as work continues apace, Transit is aiming for complete 1 train service on Monday. According to amNew York, service disruptions will last through at least the weekend as the MTA works to clear debris off the tracks and shore up the ceiling. They’re also inspecting nearby stations with similar architecture and similar community complaints of water damage. I do not yet know if the station will open Monday or if the tracks will open to through-trains only.

Do you know if the MTA is supplementing the 1 by running extra Hudson Line locals between Marble Hill and Grand Central?
