MTA May Consider Adding Second Entrance/Exit To Roosevelt Island F Train Subway Station - This Weekend F Trains To And From Manhattan, Both Tram Cabins Working And Ferry Service Too, That's 9 In A Row
Good news, for the ninth week in a row, Roosevelt Island residents will have weekend F Trains running to and from Manhattan, both Tram Cabins operating and East River Astoria Route Ferry service.
Here's the new NYC Ferry 2019 Ferry Summer Schedule.
More good news. During June 13 Roosevelt Island Town Hall Meeting organized by Council Member Ben Kallos, MTA representative Markus Book reported that there are no planned Roosevelt Island F Train weekend disruptions until August 16 weekend.
Mr Book took questions on a variety of Roosevelt Island subway and bus
issues including morning rush hours overcrowding and promised to look
into suggested solutions to relieve overcrowding. Mr Book added that the MTA might consider adding a second entrance/exit at the north side of the Roosevelt Island F Train station to better handle large crowd situations (see 10 minute 20 second mark of video below)
though he advised that:
... nothing in the works yet...Asked about the best way to receive info about service disruptions, escalator and elevator outages Mr. Book suggested following the MTA twitter feed or MyMTA app.
Also, the MTA is undergoing a redesign of the Queens Bus Network but Mr Book had no info on how that might effect Roosevelt Island residents using the Q102.
Here's video of Town Hall discussion with MTA's Mr. Book.
