Just when we thought the L-pocalypse wasn’t that bad, the MTA announced via their recent L Train newsletter new changes to service for the upcoming months. There will be no overnight service on the L train between Lorimer St and Broadway Junction for multiple weeknights and weekends up to January, 2020.

The MTA states that they’re putting the final touches that require full access to the track or the station platform, “This includes connecting the new substations in Brooklyn to power—these are the structures that will allow us to run more L trains once the project is complete.”

See below for our breakdown and how to navigate the changes:
