The only closed stations without alternate subway service very nearby are 33rd St. and 28th St. on Park Ave. (South). Probably they could have mentioned the use of buses as an alternative for people wanting these stations - the buses on Lexington Ave. southbound and on Madison Ave. northbound to/from Grand Central. They do run through the night, don't they? |

I checked the service guide on the back of the Manhattan bus map, and I see the buses on Madison Ave. (M1/2/3) only have one route running overnight, and that runs only hourly, so I guess that's a good reason not to suggest it as a subway alternative. The buses on Lexington (M101/102/103) are also listed as running hourly (every 60 minutes), but all three run, which I would hope means service every 20 minutes, but I don't know if that can be relied on. ... Well, I just now checked the schedules for those lines, and it looks like overall, the nighttime service is approximately every 20 minutes between the three of them. |
