Eric B Posted August 10, 2013 Share #3803 Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) He only said south side Manhattan Bridge; the north side is still open, so no need to cut all service between Brooklyn and Manhattan. two part service as currently on weekdays simply goes way to CTL. replaces Stillwell to 145.

No trains can travel thorugh the Manhattan bridge south tracks for that weekend. The Montague Tubes is closed during the repairs. Reroute the . During this period: runs in two sections: Coney Island-Court Street station (Court and Jay Street-Metrotech are open during this time) Canal Street (Tunnel level)-Ditmars Boulevard, Queens (lower Manhattan stations scheduled to be closed weekends remain such) runs via 6th Avenue express to 57th Street station runs via the DeKalb Avenue-West 4th, then via the West 4th to 71st-Continental. Edited to add: NEXT: A big water main break inside Madison Square Park forces a shutoff of all services on the Lexington Avenue, Broadway and 6th Avenue lines, though the stations from 14th Street south and 32nd street north can be used as can switches north of West 4th and 14th Streets. Reroute accordingly. Edited August 10, 2013 by Wallyhorse 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallyhorse Posted September 21, 2013 Share #3813 Posted September 21, 2013 Thanks, forgot about the shuttle bus:Next: The 63rd Street tunnel can only be accessed from the Broadway line due to a problem north of the 57th Street station while simultaneously, the Queens Boulevard line can not be accessed from either the 53rd or 60th Street tunnels (the Astoria line CAN be accessed from 60th Street, however). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R32 3838 Posted September 22, 2013 Share #3818 Posted September 22, 2013 This is the most logical thing I would do 8th ave/Fulton local via the with increased head ways, some selected (A)'s will terminate at chambers 8th Ave Express 168th - chambers Reason for the express is for smooth operation I would have it go to chambers or south ferry as a local while the goes to 14 (4)/(5) will go to flat bush and new lots 24/7 To ease congestion on the (4)/(5) have The go to 9th Ave (use the R32s from the the half that's not used) the would be unchanged The would do fine as a local just increase the headways 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
