Re: PATH's WTC station to close for 45 weekends

Some time ago on this forum there was a strong debate when it comes to major subway tunnel repair work due to Hurricane Sandy. There were two major arguments:

a) Is it better to simply close the subway tunnel to passenger service for the entire time and complete the extensive repair work as quickly as possible - even if it takes several weeks or months of time to complete the work.

or

b) It is better to simply close the subway tunnel to passenger service during the lower ridership periods (such as weekends or midnight hour periods) to complete the extensive repair work - even if it takes several weeks or months of time to complete the work.

It appears that this kind of a debate it still going on when one compares the PATH train tunnel closure, with the L-train 14th Street Tunnel closure.
