More on the Fast Track Subway Repair program from the MTA
MTA New York City Transit's FASTRACK initiative completely suspends train service on segments of subway lines to perform critical maintenance work. On four consecutive weeknights, for seven continuous hours, our workers have uninterrupted access to tracks, signals, cables, lighting, third rail components, and platform edges.and previous post.
During a FASTRACK service change, MTA New York City Transit employees inspect hundreds of signals and switches, repair and replace track rails and cross ties, clean track floors, perform elevator and escalator repair work, repair water damage, clear drains, clean stations, and paint surfaces. We also clean lighting fixtures, change bulbs, repair platform edges, and perform intense station cleaning. These maintenance activities improve train performance and efficiency while also providing a visible improvement to the station environment.
FASTRACK returns to the on July 23, closing stations on the 59 St-Columbus Circle to W 4 St corridor. Please allow additional travel time.
