Now Is the Winter of Our MTA Discontent

Thursday, January 5th, 2012

Reminder: The big Q train weekend changes begin this Saturday, and continue every weekend except February 4-6 until March. Here’s how it will work. Or, “work.”

Shuttle buses replace Q trains between Pacific Street and Prospect Park:
January 7-9, 14-16, 21-23, 28-30; February 11-13, 18-20, 25-27

Here’s where the buses will stop:
Prospect Park: Lincoln Rd at station entrance
7th Ave: Flatbush Av at Park Pl
Atlantic Ave-Pacific St: 4 Av at Pacific St

Shuttle bus service begins 30 minutes prior to service change, which is scheduled for 12:01am each Saturday. No Q trains will run in either direction between Prospect Park and 57th St/7th Avenue in Manhattan; take the N or the R and switch at Atlantic.

Other options: Service for the 2, 4, A, and C trains will still be available via the Franklin Avenue Shuttle at Prospect Park. You can also walk to the 2 or the F/G, but check the MTA site to be sure there are no changes to those lines that will affect your trip.
