When infrastructure repairs or upgrades require more than a few hours, we aren’t able to do them overnight, so work is scheduled over the weekend. On these weekends, buses will replace train service on the part of the line we’re working on.

Planned weekend work is listed below and will be updated if anything changes.

September 26 – 27, 2020
