Posted by Bill from Maspeth on Thu Mar 22 18:52:19 2012, in response to MTA delays reopening of Smith-9th Sts subway station until fall---riders & merchants fuming, posted by gold_12th on Thu Mar 22 14:18:58 2012. On a positive note, after the F/G gets shut down the 3/31-4/2 (5AM) weekend from Hoyt/Jay to 18th Ave., the trains will cross over to the local track entering 4th Ave. and will resume stopping @ 15th St./PPK and Ft. Hamilton Pky. stations. On at least one night beforehand (as power gets turned on) test trains will be ran, both 60' and 75' cars to check clearances and train to platform alignment, esp. @ 4th Ave. No doubt TGC 3 or 4 (or both) will visit too. The hardrail connection leaving Carroll St. and operation on 3 track to 4th Ave. will stay till Smith/9th is re-opened.G trains will begin to relay at 18th Ave., as Church Ave. Yard will be taken out of service for switch/track work as well as work to install new signals/cables. Finally, the E/G/M/7 transfer @ CSQ is also scheduled to re-open in time for the AM rush on 4/2 as Court Sq. station on the #7 should re-open. So far I have heard nothing about that not happening. |
