Reconstruction work on B/D lines in the Bronx
Nội Dung Chính
What we’re doing
Beginning Tuesday, July 5, trains will operate only on the local track between 145 St and Norwood-205 St while the express track is closed for repairs. On weeknights and weekends, there will be partial suspensions. The work will be ongoing through 2023.
Why we’re doing it
We’re doing this work to restore the Concourse Line, where the train runs, to a state of good repair. The track is 89 years old and is experiencing age-related deterioration of its steel and concrete. We will be fixing those issues and making other structural repairs to the subway tunnel, such as fixing leaks, replacing or repairing structural beams, and replacing drainpipes. We will also use the closure as an opportunity to upgrade the train power and radio communications systems.
When we’re done, customers will experience faster and more reliable rides on the express line.
