Weekend work impacting 11 subway lines

by Benjamin Kabak

I didn’t have a chance to post these last night, but you know the drill. These come to me via Transit and are subject to change without notice. Check signs at your local station and listen to on-board announcements for the latest and greatest. Subway Weekender has the map.

From 12:01 a.m. Saturday, March 26 to 5 a.m. Monday, March 28, 4 trains run local between 125th Street and Brooklyn Bridge in both directions due to track work at Grand Central-42nd Street and rail replacement north of Brooklyn Bridge.


From 11:30 p.m. Friday, March 25 to 5 a.m. Monday, March 28, 5 service is suspended between Dyre Avenue and 149 Street-Grand Concourse due to work on track signals north of East 180th Street.

Also, while not listed in the press release, the (E) is running local in both directions between Jackson Heights-Roosevelt Av & Queens Plaza, probably because the (R) is running via 63rd Street.
