Due to virus testing site  at 60th St ramp, York Av-Sutton Place closed between 53rd and 67th Sts. All crosstown streets from 53rd to 66th Sts are closed east of 1st Av, affecting M31 and M57.

 

 

This would also affect the M15 and M66. Assuming that:

M31: right on 72, left on 2nd, right on 57

M57: terminates at 2nd

M15: NB buses via 3rd from 53rd to 72nd

M66: terminates at 2nd

M15 doesn't goes on York Av, so it doesn't affect.

M66 stil can serve 67th St/1st Av via 2nd Av, 65th St, 1st Av, 67th St.

IDK who revived the "what if" game for the subway section, but starting one up for the buses clearly hasn't been a hit....

Times like this is where I miss that subway survivor game (although I've never seen one that actually finished;  kind of like playing monopoly).....

Currently during Essential Service:

Due to outdoor dining program on Sunday, Roosevelt Av will be closed between 69th St and 83rd St, which affects Q32, Q33, Q47, Q53 SBS.

My turn: the road at the intersection of 86 St & 4 Av in Brooklyn collapses, and construction on 92 St forces all eastbound vehicles to turn right onto the Verrazano Bridge just after Ft Hamilton Pkwy (westbound unaffected). In addition, there is a new park being built, surrounded by Ridge Blvd on the west, 4 Av on the east, 76 St on the north, and 79 St on the south, forcing buses there to reroute.

Reroute: B1, B4, B8, B16, B37, B70, S53, S79 SBS, S93
