Why couldn't LIRR cross honor to at least Flushing Main Street?

 

Lol @ cross honor for stations BETWEEN Penn and Woodside, there is no stations between Penn and Woodside on LIRR!

whoops typo error. I meant between Woodside station and Penn station.I don't think it's necessary to extend the cross honor to Flushing Main Street because the  train is still running to main street. If it wasn't running around there then maybe they would extend the cross honor to Flushing-Main st. For that to happen, it would probably require the whole  line to be completely suspended for one weekend.

Big weekend G.O. 1/26-1/27

No  trains between 74th st-broadway and 34th st-hudson yards

 trains run between main st and 74th st-broadway

2.Between Queensboro Plaza and Vernon Blvd-Jackson ave

3.Between Times sq-42nd st and 34th st-hudson yards

Oh then that changes it. But on a normal weekend the  should never run.

However, I do have an idea. Why doesn't the  run via Crosstown, the  via 63rd and 6th down to West 4th then normal route and the via the from West 4th to Hoyt?

Not a bad idea, but the thing is, all those  train passengers from 179th st cramming the  with existing passengers already on that train would be a problem.

But in theory this would be another way of a reroute change.

" buses make all stops between Metropolitan Av and Myrtle Av (Broadway) and run express to/from Delancey St/Essex St in Manhattan."

 

This is a direct quote from the MTA website, but eariler today when i took said bus, it stopped at all stations until Myrtle Avenue. Serious miscommunication here 🙄

yes series miscommunication. I know i thought the shuttle buses would run express between myrtle ave and essex street.

NYC is not ready for the  shutdown, nor will they ever be. There are too many construction projects getting done in the city to try to streamline traffic that is making it a nightmare to get around both in a car and on the subway. I think a re-evaluation of the shutdown should be done, to either cancel the shutdown (restricting work to overnights and weekends), or finding another way to do the reconstruction:

 

A diamond crossover should have been proposed east of 1 Av to allow the  to operate 7.5-minute headway’s into Manhattan (8 tph would be a lot better than 0). Then one tube would be reconstructed at a time. The  would run reduced service, but normal service between 8 Av and Canarsie. 

 

the extra subway service proposed would still be provided, and the shuttle buses would not be needed. 

 

Customers east of Myrtle Av would still be encouraged to take the  trains. And those past Broadway Junction would be encouraged to take the . 

Even at reduced capacity, the  is needed.

Yeah I think NYC is also not ready for the  shutdown but this is already planned out and finalized already. The MTA really can't cancel the shutdown at this point. New Yorkers would really have to deal with this either way. I know the first few weeks of the shutdown it is going to be crazy but i think after that point, it should be okay for people after adjusting to using alternative service routes for the first couple of weeks to get to their destination.
