Posted by italianstallion on Wed Oct 1 20:06:04 2014 At end of article about temporary pedestrian bridge at PW station.MTA.info For the long-term remedy, the LIRR is continuing to talk to Town of North Hempstead and community leaders about a plan that would extend two tracks at the station and replace the two pedestrian bridges as part of a larger project to improve LIRR service for Port Washington while updating the station and getting it ready for the opening of East Side Access. Once East Side Access is complete, the LIRR plans to give Port Washington commuters a choice of services, with direct trains to Grand Central Terminal joining continuing direct service to Penn Station. But, in order to do so efficiently, the LIRR needs to be able to store more trains at Port Washington station so they are in the proper location for the beginning of the morning rush hour. |
