Ooof! This is NOT our week – between the rain-a-thon just a couple of days ago and the L train’s slow daytime service, you would think there would be nowhere left to go but up, right? WRONG! You heard it – the M and J train will be skipping town this weekend and won’t be back until May 26 (for what? I do not know

Welcome to Bushwick- home of the repetitive subway service changes and interruptions! Week after week, the same service changes are going down- whether it is delays, skipped stops or suspended service. The worst part is there seems to be no end in sight (Noooooo…)! Last week there was some hope of the M and J getting […]

For the past few weeks, us Bushwick train-riding folk have been living in some wacky version of Groundhog Day (the movie, not the actual day – that would just be weird) meets some sort of vicious dejavu. Every weekend it has been the same deal – M decides to be realllllly slow and the J […]

You know, by nature I am really an optimist – always looking on the bright side of things and making the best out of situations (unless I am hungry – that is a whole other state of mind I can’t even get into). But I am really starting to lose faith in the Bushwick trains […]

Well, looks like even Madonna moving into the neighborhood can’t even make the Bushwick trains run normal – and if The Madgesty can’t then who can? (If you don’t know I am kidding than you are a bit late to the game. Kidding about Madonna that is, not the trains. They unfortunately still suck). And not […]

I am sorry to announce that the return of the freezing temperatures (last weekend was such a tease) will most likely not be the only thing getting on your nerves this weekend

New to Bushwick and looking for a full-service laundromat and/or dry cleaners? Tired of your old place and looking to move on? Either way, we have you covered.

Discussing housing, healthcare, employment, maternal health and more with Maritza Davila, Erik Dilan, Jennifer Gutiérrez, Sandy Nurse, Antonio Reynoso and Julia Salazar.

The pair of mayoral candidates met in Bushwick for one of Prince’s pie-flinging political conversations.

‘It’s frustrating when you’re playing by the rules and your opponent is cheating,’ Salazar says of Andy Marte’s primary challenge

After morning delays, the MTA announced service changes so workers can fix cables at Bedford Ave.

“There’s been a lot of sadness. People really loved that bar.”

The L train project is kicking in with overnight work.

El Puente in partnership with Assemblywoman Davila, is hosting a free Bushwick & Williamsburg CommUNITY Resource Fair on Saturday, August 24, from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Maria Hernandez Park.

Joel Aybar Contributor Transportation in the Ridgewood-Bushwick area has changed in the last few years. There’s a system of bike lanes, the MTA is serving up ever increasing delays, the L train is going to shutdown, and small car services are struggling to keep up with apps like Uber and Lyft.   Everyone from the iconic […]

The Department of Sanitation has paused plans to bring curbside collection of organics to Bushwick and other parts of NYC.

Who needs a mantra when you can just repeat “please allow additional travel time” while kicking stuff as you text your friends, family and boss telling them you’re going to be late to every single goddamn thing you have planned for this weekend?

This changes everything.

So here is to warmweather and frustrating mass transit! Happy riding! Ahh the first day of Spring was yesterday – warmer temperatures, clearer skies and :record scratch: more train interruptions and service changes. I guess we can’t win them all. The only good part is that since the weather has become more ideal (I am […]

[contextly_auto_sidebar id=”w994BMLQTU4nxoPoogZCne2AA3r8riFq”] Looks like the L train (and M…and J) want to take part in Flashback Friday and revisit old service interruptions. It has gotten to the point where service changes are nothing out of the ordinary and instead of crossing my fingers that the Bushwick trains will be running smoothly each week/weekend I have […]

So, I purposely waited until today to give you you train update because I was actually scared it would be jinxed if I gave it to you too early

It’s time for your midweek L train update so you can be reminded of how aggravated the L train makes you

The time has finally come! After going almost completely MIA on Bushwick for the months of April and May, the L train will be making a grand re-entrance next weekend (watch, something will happen and the train will have some wacko service change as usual)

Last week I just “Liked” (not “Loved!”) the MTA because, although there were no scheduled service changes, I was a bit skeptical of how service was actually going to be

Looks like the L train will never be “normal” and will continue to confuse us with its really random service changes and interruptions

“It’s Time To Open The Gates At The Gates Station,” declares the petition.

More changes to an already confusing slate of repairs and closures will make 2017 the year of the transit headache.

The MTA’s top brass met with the public and elected officials at Bed-Stuy’s Marcy Avenue Armory on Thursday night to field the public’s questions and present two main approaches to scheduling L train closures during repairs to the Canarsie tubes that will start in 2019

Image via @NBKC Instagram As L train commuters were reminded earlier this week, the MTA is one wicked, bitch mistress. But for anyone who spent hours trapped underground sandwiched between disgruntled strangers, there’s a simple solution to your struggle: get a bike. You don’t have to live like this. As Gothamist reported, subway service is only […]
