Re: New MTA statement on L-train project

that the duct bank should be removed altogether if it is no longer useful on its own...

Demolition of the duct bank is what requires shutting down one or both tunnels. More precisely, it's the silica dust that's generated during demolition. The dust wafts into the air and takes too long to settle out to permit train operation during daytime hours.

The academics' contribution was realizing that future operation did not depend on demolishing the duct bank.
