Home Service Advisories Weekend work affecting 13 subway lines

Weekend work affecting 13 subway lines

by Benjamin Kabak

If you somehow missed the big news this week, boy, are you in for some fun regarding streetcars. Read about Mayor de Blasio’s plan for a Brooklyn-Queens waterfront street first and then browse the reaction to his plan. Earlier in the week, we discovered once again that NYC’s top officials never seem to ride the subway. More on that — and the NYPD overreaction to a few discrete instances of assaults in the subway — next week.

Meanwhile, we have some weekend work to contend with. That snow storm on Friday morning wasn’t enough to send everyone into a tizzy so the service diversions continue as planned. As always, these come to me from the MTA. If there are mistakes, take it up with them.
