Service Diversions 02-10-12

As you know, I updated the Service Diversions yesterday with the planned work for the weekend, next week & beyond in some cases. However with the pending storm, MTA NYC Transit has announced that most planned diversions for the weekend have been canceled. However the following remain in effect (the official page reflects the changes):

1 Train

At all times until summer 2012, 1 trains bypass the downtown platform at Dyckman Street due to station rehabilitation. Customers wishing to travel downtown are advised to take the uptown 1 train from Dyckman Street to 207th Street and use a free MetroCard transfer to the downtown side.

From 11 p.m. Friday, February 10 to 5 a.m. Monday, February 13, uptown 1 trains run express from Chambers Street to 14th Street due to rail and tie renewal at Houston Street and track replacement south of 14th Street.

7 Train

From 12:01 a.m. Saturday, February 11 to 5 a.m. Monday, February 13, there are no 7 trains between Times Square-42nd Street and Queensboro Plaza due to track panel installation and CBTC work south of Queensboro Plaza, ADA work at Court Square and station renewal at Hunters Point Avenue. Customers should take the N, R, E or F between Manhattan and Queens. Free shuttle buses operate between Vernon Blvd-Jackson Avenue and Queensboro Plaza. In Manhattan, the 42nd Street shuttle (S) operates overnight. From 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday, February 11 and from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday, February 12, Q service is extended to/from Ditmars Blvd. due to the 7 line suspension. (Repeats next seven weekends through March 31-Apr 2.)

F Train & G Train
At all times until spring 2012, F and G trains skip Smith-9th Sts. in both directions due to station rehabilitation. Customers may use the B61 for connections between Smith-9th Sts. station and 4th Avenue-9th Street station, where F, G and R trains are available. Customers may also use the B57 bus for connections between Smith-9th Sts. station and Carroll Street station, where F and G trains are available.

At all times until spring 2012, Brooklyn-bound F and Church Avenue-bound G trains skip 15th Street-Prospect Park and Fort Hamilton Parkway due to Culver Viaduct rehabilitation. To get to these stations take the Brooklyn-bound F to Church Avenue and transfer to a Manhattan-bound F or Queens-bound G. Leaving these stations, customer should take a Manhattan-bound F or a Queens-bound G to 7th Avenue and transfer to a Brooklyn-bound F.
