This could ruin WFMU, the best radio station on the planet, which depends on its annual record fair (in Greenpoint this year) to raise funds. Not to mention Smorgasburg.

This is the opposite of "Fast Track." Whatever repairs need to be made need to be better spread out so as to not paralyze our community and small businesses for MONTHS!

This is causing severe impact on our local businesses and must be stopped!

Makes Sense. I'm tired of seeing good shops and restaurants shut down left and right.

This is ridiculous. You can't cut off the transporation options for a whole part of a burro ugh and the businesses that rely on it.

This work? has been ongoing since I moved here in the late 1980's. Embarrassing and insulting to all residents and visitors to NYC. A continuous slap in the face that constantly stings..

Stop the closures in April. You need to add another line.

Thank you for doing the work... But please consider scheduling it during late night service when the impact on weekend commuters is minimized!!

I'm a business owner on the L train; this lengthy closure in spring is unacceptable. It will severely impact our revenues for the year.

The all weekend closure will make it impossible for some patients to get to their scheduled medical treatments on those weekends.

I add my voice to those calling for the rescheduling of this maintainace for later in the summer when it will have less impact on the cultural community in Brooklyn, whose events and open hours in the case of galleries are weekends.

This really affects our business, there has to be an alternative similar to the shuttle that ran on the A from 168 to dyckman on one track so they didn't totally cut off the neighborhoods up here.

these closures should be shifted. As they stand, they will destroy businesses

5 weekends just as things begin to pick up is problematic for both our customers and employees. the closure makes it the same amount of time for my Manhattan employees to walk as to take the alternate routes. 1 hour.
