In an effort to keep New Yorkers informed of the status of work at the Fulton St. complex, Transit sent out a month-at-a-glance poster earlier this week. I’ve printed the poster below. The work, according to Transit, will impact the IND platform at Broadway/Nassau this month. The work includes reinforcing the girders over the platform and digging pits on the platform so that crews can partially construct elevator shafts throughout all levels of the station. One day, a transit hub will arise.
After the poster come this week’s service advisories.
Below are the weekend’s service advisories. As always, these comes to me via Transit and are subject to change without notice. Listen to all on-board announcements and pay attention to signs in your local station. These are available in map form from Subway Weekender.

Couple of changes to the list:
The N and Q via R GO is cancelled.
There is an additional GO: Uptown 1 runs express from 96 to 145 Sts, 9AM to 1PM, Saturday
When all is done, any word on whether the A/C station will still be called “Broadway-Nassau”, or will it be renamed to match the 2/3/4/5/J/Z (possibly M?) stations and the Transit Hub name?
The AC “Broadway-Nassau” name will change to “Fulton St” by the completion of the project.
