Because of weekend construction, the is suspended between 96 Street and 168 Street, the cannot use 145 Street and 148 Street to terminate, Grand Street needs to be rehabilitated, suspending the between 34 Street and Atlantic Avenue, all uptown and trains have to use the express tracks and Manhattan bridge from 36 Street to Canal Street, and both Queens Plaza and Queensboro Plaza are getting rehabilitated, which means no service in Queens, no in Manhattan, and the and lines have to be rerouted on the 63 Street line.
Reroute or suspend the affected lines.
=====================================================
You basically just solved your own problem didn't you?
Just terminate the at 74th Street, and terminate the at 135th Street, & have it run NIS onto the White Plains middle track to layup.

They run trains during middays, but there aren't any trains running at 11.
Are you sure about that?
They don't run northbound expresses at that time, even at that LOCATION, but in general, the trains are still running (southbound). service ends at 12pm.

Now what, where, and why is the coming from Nassau Street??? It would be better just to even send it to New Jersey. Also that proposal puts delays on the and this new (8) train. It would back EVERYTHING up.

Somethings got me thinking to.
In case anything were to happen to Brooklyn Bridge - City Hall on the Lexingiton Line, like the roof has fallen onto the platform, but the tracks remain in use. how would the terminate? I know Bowling Green might seem like a good terminal, but what if the MTA were to reopen City Hall Loop, just as they did with the South Ferry Loop on the . They could get gap fillers, and restore the station. What do you think?
If the roof has fallen to the platform, then I think the WHOLE STATION would be closed, because potentially the whole station could come smashing down.
As for City Hall Loop, I don't think it's needed. The reason it was shut down because of low ridership, and the Brooklyn Bridge station is a short walk away. Also the money and effort needed to restore that station wouldn't be worth it.

This is my proposal for Rockefeller Center. It makes it easier for local and express. Comment on it.
Delays, delays, and even more delays. How does it make it easier for local and express? Those switches are never used anyway; might as well leave them as is.
btw the shuttle platform at Bowling Green is shorter than the regular station length, and it is abandoned. That's the point of the going there; to turn around in the other direction.

How does the terminate at 96th Street?
It can terminate at 96th Street, then reverse and use the center track. But I forgot that it has to skip all stops to 137th Street.

Alright, a suspicious backpack was found in the morning rush hour in front of the New York Stock Exchange. Because of that, the area south of Fulton Street is restricted.

Surprising how there are people on it when it's an unplanned change, but when there is a planned change and it's posted everywhere, people don't do the same. (The in two sections for example, people still wait for the that will never arrive.)

Well at least most CPW stations are connected in both directions. I feel bad for people at 110th Street and 116th Street.0 -
Heres a good scenario: Due to the ongoing Fix and Fortify program the Cranberry Street tubes on the A and C are shut down completely for the next 12 months. On top of that the Manhattan Bridge is closed on weekends on the south side of the bridge due to planned GOs due to signal upgrades (BMT Broadway Line) . The Chrystie Street connection to the IND 6th Avenue Line however stays open. How should we provide alternate service on all lines affected by the shutdown?

ALMOST forgot that Montague Street reopened yesterday.

Manhattan Division Bus Proposals/Ideas
in New York City Bus

Hey just some random idea but why not merge the M10 and M12? They both end at Columbus Circle, and maybe it could encourage some uptown riders? It might make it somewhat inefficient because of the 12th Avenue traffic, but I think it could work.
