Weekend Roosevelt Island F Train Subway is Normal but Next Week May Be A Nightmare!
I apologize for the lack of recent posts but I have been in Calgary Canada for the last few days and internet access has been spotty. Despite my distance from Roosevelt Island, I am pleased that The MTA is reporting normal F train subway service for Roosevelt Island this weekend but be aware that starting Monday June 9 at 10 PM and continuing through 6 AM Thursday June 19 the Roosevelt Island Tram will be shut down for track rope slipping.
RIOC President Steve Shane reports in his 5/31 Main Street WIRE column that:
... RIOC will run two buses to Queens Plaza every half-hour during weekday morning rush hours (6:00 - 10 AM). There will be no evening rush hour pickup at Queens Plaza.Is this what we all have to look forward to at the Roosevelt Island subway station next week?
