Home Service Advisories Weekend changes here, there and everywhere

Weekend changes here, there and everywhere

by Benjamin Kabak

We’re coming down the home stretch of the period with really bad fall weekend service changes. Once Thanksgiving and tourist season rolls around and the temperatures drop further, the MTA starts to scale back the work, but for now, we’re left with changes on nearly every line.

As always, these come to me via New York City Transit and are subject to change without notice. Check the signs in your local station and listen for on-board announcements. Subway Weekender has the map.


From 11:30 p.m. Friday, November 12 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 15, 1 service is suspended between 242nd Street and 168th Street due to rehab work between 242nd Street and Dyckman Street stations. The A train, free shuttle buses and the M3 bus provide alternate service. Free shuttle buses operate:

  • On Broadway between 242nd Street and 215th Street stations, then connecting to the 207th Street A station.
  • On St. Nicholas Avenue between 191st and 168th Street stations.


From 12:01 a.m. Saturday, November 13 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 15, uptown 1 and 2 trains skip 50th, 59th, and 66th due to track work south of 66th Street. Customers traveling to these stations may take the 1 or 2 trains to 72nd Street and transfer to a downtown 1.


From 12:01 a.m. Saturday, November 13 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 15, uptown 4 and 6 trains skip Canal, Spring and Bleecker Streets and Astor Place due to work on the Broadway-Lafayette Street to Bleecker Street transfer connection.


From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Sunday, November 14, downtown 4 trains skip Kingsbridge and Fordham Roads, 183rd and 176th Streets, Mt. Eden Avenue and 170th Street stations due to track tie and plate replacement. Customers traveling to these stations may take the 4 to Burnside Avenue or 167th Street and transfer to an uptown 4 train.


From 5:50 a.m. to 11:30 p.m., Saturday, November 13 and from 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. Sunday, November 14, 5 trains run every 20 minutes between Dyre Avenue and Bowling Green due to work on the Broadway-Lafayette Street to Bleecker Street transfer connection.


From 4 a.m. Saturday, November 13 to 11 p.m. Sunday, November 14, Flushing-bound 7 trains skip 82nd, 90th, 103rd, and 111th Streets due to switch renewal work at 111th Street. Customers traveling to these stations may take a Flushing-bound 7 to Junction Blvd. or Willets Point and transfer to a Manhattan-bound 7.


From 10:30 p.m. Friday, November 12 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 15, free shuttle buses replace A trains between Far Rockaway and Beach 98th Street due to station rehabilitations. A trains replace the S (Rockaway Shuttle) between Broad Channel and Rockaway Park.


From 6:30 a.m. to midnight, Saturday, November 13 and Sunday, November 14, there are no C trains between Manhattan and Brooklyn due to preparation work on the Culver Viaduct. (When we do work on the Viaduct, we usually suspend the C because operating the F on the A, C line in Brooklyn would causes delays if all three lines are operating together. However, suspending the C would cause the A to make all local stops in Manhattan and Brooklyn which would increase travel time. Instead, we are rerouting the C to the WTC station to accommodate E customers. The A will run normally in Manhattan and Brooklyn and the F will run local in Brooklyn on the A,C line to Euclid Avenue.)


From 12:01 a.m. Saturday, November 13 to 5 a.m. Monday, November 15, Coney Island-bound D trains run on the N line from 36th Street to Coney Island/Stillwell Avenue due to structural repair and station rehabs from 71st Street to Bay 50th Street and ADA work at Bay Parkway.

From 11:30 p.m. Friday, November 12, to 5 a.m. Monday, November 15, free shuttle buses replace F trains between Jay Street and Church Avenue due to preparation work on the Culver Viaduct. F trains run in two sections:

My husband and i ended up being thankful that Chris could finish up his investigations from your precious recommendations he grabbed from your own blog. It is now and again perplexing just to always be handing out procedures which most people may have been making money from. And we also remember we’ve got you to give thanks to because of that. The specific illustrations you’ve made, the easy web site navigation, the friendships your site make it possible to foster – it’s got everything wonderful, and it is facilitating our son and us believe that the issue is enjoyable, which is certainly extraordinarily essential. Many thanks for all the pieces!
