Does this explain why there is no M to Manhattan to supplement the L? Or did they just forget us? 🙁
The M to manhattan on the weekends is only when the L is not running to Manhattan.
Ugh, guess that explains it. Silly really. The M to 6th Ave. could still make life easier for a lot of people.
With the L train, since they have that pocket train at Myrtle/Wyckoff, I don’t understand why they have to close both east and west of that station. Of course, the MTA would often close between 8th avenue to Broadway Junction on weekends, which really seems unnecessary. Even for the times where they have to work on the East River tunnels, they could start the trains at Lorimer. I’d rather they close shorter segments of the line more frequently than have to have weekends where they are taking out larger segments.
