Our Community. This is primarily maintenance work that is designed to ensure our infrastructure is in a state of good repair and is as follows: - Sperry Rail Testing from Bayside to Port Washington - This is designed to catch any defects in the rail that cant be seen with the naked eye.
First responders are aware of the closure and alternative routes. For the rest of the day on both Saturday and Sunday, there will be no train service between Great Neck and Port Washington. Free buses unfortunately due to the shortage of drivers we have to use school buses will replace train service during those stretches of no train service. We will be staging our crews and equipment out of headquarters at Port Washington Station and Mets Willets Points for this work.
Please check our schedules here for more information on service along the Port Washington Branch this weekend. All trains originate and terminate at East Williston Station.
Transfer to a diesel shuttle train stopping at Bethpage and Babylon, where electric train service will resume. For eastbound customers, reverse the process by traveling to Babylon, boarding a diesel shuttle train stopping at Bethpage and Hicksville, where electric train service will resume. Please allow up to 60 minutes of additional travel time. Electric trains will not stop at Bethpage Station. Westbound customers should wait on the eastbound platform Track 2, Platform B , and board a shuttle train to Babylon.
At Babylon, transfer to westbound express trains to Penn Station that make limited stops, including Jamaica. Eastbound customers should wait on the westbound platform Track 1, Platform A , and board a shuttle train to Hicksville. At Hicksville, transfer to an eastbound electric train for service to stations from Farmingdale to Ronkonkoma.
Please plan ahead and allow additional time to safely cross the Stewart Avenue grade crossing when getting to and from the opposite station platform. This requires work engines and they will be staged by the Cross Island Parkway to minimize disruption. Please plan for up to 40 minutes of additional travel time.
As such, while the Sperry train itself does not cause much noise, any potential remedial work that is undertaken will, so there could be extra noise in the vicinity of our outage. We also will have two headquarters for this work, the Little Neck station and the Bayside yard. The work will begin at around midnight on Friday and end around midnight on Sunday. Most of the prep work will be taking place in between Little Neck and Great Neck Stations, with some additional work to occur around Douglaston to address a track condition there.
To accommodate this work, we will move from half hourly to hourly service on the Port Washington branch for its duration. This will conclude the majority of our prep work, which is usually the most disruptive aspect of concrete tie replacement, and allow for us to proceed with the actual construction phase from July 6th to August 29th much more seamlessly.
