Due to the upcoming “necessary maintenance work” on the L, there will be no service from 11:30pm Friday until 5:00am Monday for the next 5 weekends. This makes getting into Williamsburg and the rest of North Brooklyn a huge pain. You’re left either riding a bus, which takes so much longer, or hailing a taxi and spending most of your food/booze money.

Fortunately, Uber is stepping up and offering $5 uberPOOL rides along the L line between Williamsburg and Manhattan for these 5 weekends!

How It Works:

Open the Uber app on your phone. Enter promo code ORSVP to take $20 off your first ride. Select the uberPOOL option at the bottom of your screen. Request! You may be matched with another rider going the same way. Whether or not you’re matched, your fare to or from Williamsburg will cost no more than $5.

Details:

$5 flat rates apply automatically for trips starting and ending along the L Line in these locations:

$5 flat rate will run between 11:30pm on Fridays until 5:00am on Mondays from April 17 through May 18.

Surge does not apply to flat rates.
