Service on the A line, crucial for commuters to Rockaways, will halt from Jan. 17 to May 19 for repairs related to Hurricane Sandy, affecting over 9,000 daily riders.
The MTA plans this extended closure to install major upgrades to the infrastructure, aiming to prevent future storm-related disruptions like those experienced after Hurricane Sandy.
Local residents are voicing their frustration; waiting for shuttle buses and ferries in freezing weather is a major concern, especially for those who need to commute to Manhattan.
Some community members have expressed that this service cut could not come at a worse time, contributing to ongoing difficulties since the summer's transit challenges.
