Tuscarora Almanac – April 11, 1988 – The Book of Wrecks

New York City Transit Authority
BMT Division

Train service over the Williamsburg Bridge is suspended due to structural defects. This effectively isolates the Eastern Section of the BMT from the rest of the system. “J” and “M” trains from Queens will be turned back at Marcy Avenue and Myrtle Avenue. Nine extra trains will be added to the “L” service. The Nassau Street Line in Manhattan will only operate on weekdays from 6 AM to 8 PM. JFK Expresses are increased to eight cars and begin making regular express stops without the extra fare on weekdays.

This will continue until June12, 1988 when repairs are complete and service across the bridge is restored.
