Service Update For Rush Hour

Posted by
on January 27th, 2011 at 4:35 pm

The MTA has been working hard to restore full service in the aftermath of a storm that dumped nineteen inches of snow on New York City and more than a foot of snow in other parts of the region. While we have restored service across the entire system, recovery efforts are ongoing and customers may still experience some delays and cancellations. While the storm has passed, we continue to urge all of our customers to walk carefully on platforms and stairs, and to take special care when boarding or exiting buses or trains.

New York City Subway:

Service has been restored on all subway lines and the Staten Island Railroad, but customers can still expect some residual delays.

Buses in New York City and Nassau County:

Manhattan:

Full or partial service restored on all routes.

Brooklyn:

Full or partial service restored on all routes except the B7, B14, B17, B47, B60 and B83.

The Bronx:

Full or partial service restored on all routes except the Bx24.

Queens:

Full or partial service restored on all routes except the Q2, Q15A, Q39, Q42, Q67, Q76, Q84 and Q88.

Staten Island:

Full or partial service restored on all routes except the S42 and S52.

Nassau:

Full or partial service restored on all routes.

Long Island Rail Road:

LIRR plans to operate a reduced weekday PM Rush schedule. Of the 126 trains normally operated during the PM rush, approximately 18 eastbound PM rush trains will be canceled and, as a result, some trains could be more crowded. Buses will replace train service east of Speonk on the Montauk Branch and east of Ronkonkoma on the Main Line to Greenport.

Additionally, because of a weather-related track condition in the Cold Spring Harbor area, electric train service between Hicksville and Huntington will terminate at Hicksville. Syosset, Cold Spring Harbor and Huntington customers must change to/from electric trains to diesel trains at Hicksville. Syosset, Cold Spring Harbor and Huntington customers should anticipate delays and should listen for announcements at western terminals and at stations Hicksville through Huntington.

As an alternative Syosset, Cold Spring Harbor and Huntington customers can avoid the transfer at Hicksville by taking direct diesel train service at western terminals.

Metro-North Railroad:

New Haven Line main line service will operate on a Sunday Schedule for the remainder of the day providing hourly service. However, the 4:34 PM, 5:34 PM and 6:34 PM trains departing Grand Central Terminal will not be operating. The New Canaan, Danbury and Waterbury branches are suspended for the remainder of the day.

Hudson and Harlem Line trains will continue to operate on a Saturday schedule for the remainder of the day. The Newburgh-Beacon and Haverstraw-Ossining Ferries will continue to be replaced by substitute bus service.

West-of-Hudson Customers:

For NJ TRANSIT travel information and current service status, please visit http://www.njtransit.com/.

Access-A-Ride and Able-Ride:

Access-A-Ride and Able-Ride service is canceled except for trips of medical necessity (e.g., dialysis, radiation treatment or chemotherapy). Customers who need to travel to such an
appointment should call reservations in advance.

Bridges and Tunnels:

All roadways at MTA Bridges and Tunnels’ crossings are open and operating normally at this time. Motorists are asked to allow extra travel time and operate at reduced speeds due to wet roadways.

Metro-North Service Update

Posted by
on January 27th, 2011 at 1:38 pm

For the remainder of the day, Metro-North Railroad will continue operating a Saturday schedule on the Hudson and Harlem lines and a Sunday schedule on the New Haven Line. The three New Haven line branches, New Canaan, Danbury and Waterbury, will remain out of service.

Ridership is down about half, based on actual counts of select trains. So Metro-North is confident that it has enough trains in service to carry everyone home.
