FDNY Conducting Safety Drills On The Roosevelt Island Tram Today - Nothing To Worry About But First Step Out Is A Doozy

Don't be concerned if you see the New York City Fire Department out in force today on the Roosevelt Island Tram. They are there to conduct safety drills. According to the Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC):

Please be advised the FDNY will be practicing on one Tram cabin on Wednesday, November 16th, from the hours of 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Please note regular Tram service will not be interrupted during this time frame.

Sincerely,

Roosevelt Island Operating Corp Advisories Group

That first step out of the Cabin is a doozy.
