Grade crossing work to delay LIRR Port Jefferson Branch trains
Written by jrood
A grade crossing renewal project in St. James, N.Y., will affect some midday train service on the MTA Long Island Rail Road's Port Jefferson Branch from Monday, August 2, through Friday, August 6. During the work four eastbound and four westbound midday trains will depart and terminate from the Smithtown Station instead of the Port Jefferson Station.
The renovation work at
the Mill Pond Road, St. James grade crossing will include replacement of the
rubber pads with longer lasting concrete, a smoother surface for trains and
motor vehicles.
Affected customers should
pick up special Port Jefferson Branch August 2-August 6 schedules at their
stations or at LIRR terminals.
