These 6 NYC Subway Lines Will Run More Often This Summer
Subway service to Rockaway Beach isn’t the only train receiving increased service this summer–six additional lines are as well!
Governor Hochul recently announced the next phase of NYC subway service enhancements, which will provide six lines serving the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens with increased service.
Enhanced midday and evening weekday service has already been added to the B, D, J, and M lines as of this past Monday, July 1st, with trains now arriving every 8 minutes (instead of 10) during the midday and evening periods, accounting for a combined 500 additional trips per week.
And starting this weekend, Saturday, July 6th, the 3 and 5 lines will receive enhanced weekend service, with trains arriving every 10 minutes (instead of 12).
MTA Chief Customer Officer Shanifah Rieara stated:
Customers want better, more convenient service that gets them where they need to go quickly and safely. These enhancements will benefit riders in Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan and the Bronx at a time when leisure travel is at its greatest with school out.
The enhanced service on the above lines are part of the $35 million that was included in the FY 2024 New York State Budget for subway service enhancements, which has already benefited the J, M, and G lines.
All we know is that with one of the hottest summers of our lifetimes settling down around us, we’ll welcome a two minute shorter subway wait with open arms!
