No Roosevelt Island F Train Service From Manhattan This Weekend And Next - How About A Trampoline Bridge Crossing East River Instead?


According to the Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC):
The MTA has advised there will be No weekend Queens - bound F-trains on the following dates:

9:45 PM Friday, January 18th to 5:00 AM Monday, January 21st

AND

9:45 PM Friday, January 25th to 5:00 AM Monday, 28th

Tram and Red Bus Service will run until 5:00 AM during these service disruptions.

For more information please visit www.mta.info or call 511.
More subway service disruption information available from the MTA's Weekender. 

Perhaps some day there will be a bridge connecting Roosevelt Island to Manhattan and/or Queens making these subway service disruptions less inconvenient.

For example, here's a design proposal for a bridge over the Seine River in Paris - an inflatable, trampoline bridge.



Looks like a fun way to get across the East River from Roosevelt Island to Manhattan too.
