Home Service Advisories Weekend work affecting 16 subway lines

Weekend work affecting 16 subway lines

by Benjamin Kabak

There’s an exceedingly small threat of snow for Sunday night into Monday that seems to be growing smaller with each new weather forecast. It’s going to be cold again next week for a few days, but we’re getting used to a late winter of temperature fluctuations. No matter the forecast, this weekend’s work is going on as scheduled.

Before I jump in, don’t forget to RSVP for Wednesday’s Problem Solvers. I’m talking about the future of fare payment systems with Michael DeVitto, Transit’s head of fare payment programs. We’ll delve into the MetroCard’s immediate fate and various other topics relating to fare payment.

I have not been able to register for this upcoming Wednesday’s “Problem Solvers” for the last two weeks. This is the error message I keep getting:

“Errors encountered:

We cannot process your registration. For information, please contact us by phone or email.”

I have tried calling, but I have reached the voicemail both times.

Alan,

I’ll contact the Transit Museum to see what’s up. You can also feel free to show up without a pre-arranged ticket. They won’t turn you away. They ask for RSVPs just to get something of a headcount in advance.
